A car of mass 1,975 kg travels along a circular road of radius 80.0 m at 22.0 m/s. (a) Calculate the magnitude of the car's centripetal acceleration. m/s2 (b) What is the magnitude of the force of static friction acting on the car? N
Added by Jeffrey C.
Step 1
Given: Mass of the car, m = 1975 kg Radius of the circular path, r = 80.0 m Speed of the car, v = 22.0 m/s Centripetal acceleration, a = v^2 / r a = (22.0 m/s)^2 / 80.0 m a = 6.05 m/s^2 Show more…
