Transcribed Image Text:A car of massm travels around a flat, circular
curve of radius r at the fastest possible
speed, v = 13.5 m/s without sliding off. The
car and road have a coefficient of friction,
between them.
If the car wishes to take the turn at 2.4x the
velocity, by what factor would the radius
need to increase (so the car doesn't slide off)
?
Give your answer to 1 decimal place.
