- A vehicle with a mass of 2.5x103 kg is driving at a speed of 66 km/h around a level roadway with a curvature radius of 56 meters, just staying on the roadway (i.e., driving at the maximum safe speed for this turn and the tire treads). What is the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road? (Hint: Watch your units above.) Answer: μ = __________ (no units)The Texas Motor Speedway is an oval racing track with curves of radius 229 m that are banked at an angle of 24.0°. The size of the track allows for race cars to achieve speeds in excess of 400 km/h. An unintended consequence of the banked curves and high speeds is that race car drivers experience excessive G forces, especially in the "vertical" direction (with respect to their body position), causing dizziness and loss of consciousness. (a) A daring driver, pushing his car to the limit, experiences 4.67g of centripetal acceleration during one banking maneuver. What is the speed of his car during the maneuver? (Give your answer in km/h.) km/h (b) If the driver is seated so that during the banking maneuver his upper body is aligned with the direction normal to the banked curve, what is the magnitude of the component of the centripetal acceleration along the driver's upper body? (Give your answer in terms of g.) a deleteA car of mass 500 kg is traveling on a circular banked roadway that is inclined at an angle of 0 = 20° with a radius of 100 m. What is the only speed at which the car can sliding navigate the bank without up or down the incline?
