Question
Question 2 - Go Kart Track
Your go karts have a mass of 450kg and travel around a circular curve on a flat,
horizontal track at a radius of 42 m.
a) Draw a diagram to show the go kart on the track and add an arrow to show
the direction of the frictional force needed for the car to travel around the
curve at a radius of 42 m.
b) The maximum frictional force between the tyres and the road is equal to 20%
of the weight of the car and driver. Calculate the coefficient of friction when an
adult of mass 70kg is driving the kart.
c) Calculate maximum angular velocity at which the car can travel round the
curve at a constant radius of 42 m.
