provide free body diagram and complete ans

a) A curve on a level road is banked at an angle of 12.0° for a velocity of 30.0 m/s. If a car rounds this curve at 17 m/s, find the minimum coefficient of friction between the tires and the road so that the automobile will not skid. b) The maximum speed that a car can turn a curve of 9.00 m radius without skidding is 70.0 mph (miles per hour). If the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road is 0.600, what is the rated speed of the banked curve? On a wet day, the same car begins to skid on the curve when its speed reaches 60.0 mph. What is the coefficient of friction in this case?
