A concrete highway curve of radius 84 m is banked at a 15.3 degree angle. What is the maximum speed with which a 1500 kg rubber-tired car can take this curve without sliding? First of all, what is the relevant coefficient of friction? (It's 1) What is the magnitude of the normal force acting on the car? What is the maximum speed the car can take this curve without sliding? Does this maximum speed depend on the mass of the...
