Chapter 17.3, Problem 31P
A car having a weight of 4000 lb begins to skid and turn with the brakes applied to all four wheels. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheels and the road is μk = 0.8, determine the maximum critical height h of the center of gravity G such that the car does not overturn. Tipping will begin to occur after the car rotates 90° from its original direction of motion and, as shown in the figure, undergoes translation while skidding. Hint: Draw a free-body diagram of the car viewed from the front. When tipping occurs, the normal reactions of the wheels on the right side (or passenger side) are zero.

The solid homogeneous cylinder shown has a mass of 30 kg and is rotating at 1200 rpm clockwise about a fixed horizontal axis through O. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the brake and the cylinder is 0.20. If the tension in the spring when the brake is applied is 100 N, determine the time required for the cylinder to stop rotating. Neglect the thickness of the vertical members. (Draw FBD)
