calculate the highest speed a car can reach over a 196.85 foot distance starting from a standstill. The weight of the automobile is not uniformly distributed ( 60% at the front, 40% at the back), and the static friction between the car and the road is 0.8. Consider (a) four-wheel drive , (b) front wheel drive (c) rear-wheel drive.
A frictionless plane is 10.0 m long and inclined at 35.0°.A sled starts at the bottom with an initial speed of 5.00 m/sup the incline. When the sled reaches the point at which itmomentarily stops, a second sled is released from the top ofthe incline with an initial speed vi. Both sleds reach the bottomof the incline at the same moment. (a) Determine the distance that the first sled traveled up the incline. (b) Determinethe initial speed of the second sled.
(a) If the coefficient of kinetic friction between tires and dry pavement is 0.80, what is the shortest distance in which you can stop a car by locking the brakes when the car is traveling at 28.7 m/s (about 65 mi/h)? (b) On wet pavement the coefficient of kinetic friction may be only 0.25. How fast should you drive on wet pavement to be able to stop in the same distance as in part (a)? (Note: Locking the brakes is not the safest way to stop.)

If a car goes through a curve too fast, the car tends to slide out of the curve. For a banked curve with friction, a frictional force acts on a fast car to oppose the tendency to slide out of the curve; the force is directed down the bank (in the direction water would drain). Consider a circular curve of radius R = 180 m and bank angle 8, where the coefficient of static friction between tires and pavement is µs. A car (without negative lift) is driven around the curve as shown in Figure (a). Find an expression for the car speed Vmax that puts the car on the verge of sliding out, in terms of R, 0, and us. Evaluate Vmax for a bank angle of = 10° and for (a) μ = 0.51 (dry pavement) and (b) µs = 0.050 (wet or icy pavement). (Now you can see why accidents occur in highway curves when icy conditions are not obvious to drivers, who tend to drive at normal speeds.)
