A car rounds an unbanked curve of radius $65 \mathrm{m}$. If the coefficient of static friction between the road and car is 0.70, what is the maximum speed at which the car can traverse the curve without slipping?
An unbanked curve has a radius of 80 m. What is the maximum speed at which a car can make the turn if the coefficient of friction is 0.81?

A car rounds a banked curve as shown in Figure $6.6$. The radius of curvature of the road is $R$, the banking angle is $\theta$, and the coefficient of static friction is $\mu_{s}$. (a) Determine the range of speeds the car can have without slipping up or down the banked surface. (b) Find the minimum value for $\mu_{s}$ such that the minimum speed is zero. (c) What is the range of speeds possible if $R=100 \mathrm{~m}, \theta=10.0^{\circ}$, and $\mu_{s}=0.100$ (slippery conditions)?
