Question
Car A uses tires for which the coefficient of static friction is 1.1 on a particular unbanked curve. The maximum speed at which the car can negotiate this curve is 25 m/s. Car B uses tires for which the coefficient of static friction is 0.85 on the same curve. What is the maximum speed at which car B can negotiate the curve?

- A crate of eggs is located in the middle of the flat bed of a pickup truck as the truck negotiates a curve in the flat road. The curve may be regarded as an arc of a circle of radius 33.8 m. If the coefficient of static friction between crate and truck is 0.610, how fast can the truck be moving without the crate sliding?

- A woman pulls a cloth out from under a 200 g bowl sitting on a table. The bowl is 30.0 cm from the far edge of the cloth, and the cloth exerts a friction force of 0.125 N on the bowl. Assume the cloth is pulled with a constant horizontal acceleration of 2.80 m/s2. What distance (in m) does the bowl travel relative to the top of the table? (Assume the cloth moves in the +x-direction and notice that it moves more than 30.0 cm relative to the top of the table.)arrow_forwardA toy submarine of mass m = 0.730 kg moves around a submerged circular track of radius R = 1.77 m. The submarine's engine provides a constant propulsion force of F = 4.88 N. When the sub is in motion, it is subject to a viscous drag force exerted by the water. This force is proportional to the sub's speed; the proportionality factor is C = 1.26 kg/s. Assuming it starts from rest at t = 0.s, the speed v (t) of the submarine at a later timet is given by v (1) = (1 – e-Ctim) where e is the base of the natural logarithm. How much time has passed when the submarine's speed reaches 62% of its terminal value? t = What is the magnitude of the submarine's acceleration a at m/s2 this time? a = 16000arrow_forwardA frictionless plane is 10.0 m long and inclined at 42.0°.

Both sleds reach the bottom of the incline at the same moment. (a) Determine the distance that the first sled traveled up the incline. (b) Determine the initial speed of the second sled.arrow_forward
