What is the maximum speed with which a 1500 kg car can make a turn around a curve of radius 20 m on a level (unbanked) road without sliding? (This radius turn is about what you might expect at a major intersection in a city.)

Step 1
This frictional force is equal to the maximum static friction force, which is given by the equation \(f_{\text{friction}} = \mu_s \times N\), where \(N\) is the normal force and \(\mu_s\) is the coefficient of static friction. Show more…

what is the maximum speed with which a 1200 kg car can round a turn of radius 90
Prabhat T.
A $2.00 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{kg}$ car rounds a circular turn of radius $20.0 \mathrm{m} .$ If the road is flat and the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 0.70 how fast can the car go without skidding?
