Question

7.A road on a college campus has sharp, level curve with a radius of 46.4 m that has a speed limit of 39 km/h. After a serious accident a physics professor discovers that the surface was covered with gravel that reduced the coefficient of static friction to 0.208. What is the maximum safe speed (in km/h) one can drive on the curve when the road is covered with the gravel?

8.8.A platform scale calibrated in newtons is placed on the bed of a truck driven at a constant speed of 19 m/s. A box weighing 473 N is placed on the scale. Find the reading on the scale if the truck passes through the bottom of a dip with a radius of curvature of 86 m.

Explanation / Answer

speed=9.72m/s

b) 2458.5N
