3) A car rounds a circular curve of radius 80.0 m banked at 15⁰ to the horizontal at 30.0 m/s. What is the coefficient of friction required for the car not to skid? Some hints. first, set the x-axis as horizontal, and the y-axis as vertical (this is different than how we normally handle inclines). Second, there will be 3 forces: the normal force (with x- and y- components), the force of gravity (y-component only), and friction pointing down the slope (also with x- and y-components).
