A car at the Indianapolis-500 accelerates uniformly from the pitarea, going from rest to 285 km/h in asemicircular arc with a radius of 196m.
Determine the tangential acceleration of the car when it is halfwaythrough the turn, assuming constant tangential acceleration.
m/s2
Determine the radial acceleration of the car at this time.
m/s2
If the curve were flat, what would the coefficient of staticfriction have to be between the tires and the roadbed to providethis acceleration with no slipping or skidding?
