A crate of eggs is located in the middle of the flatbed of a pickup truck as the truck negotiates a curve in the flat road. The curve may be regarded as an arc of a circle with a radius of 37.0 m. If the coefficient of friction between crate and flatbed of truck is .625, how fast can the truck be moving without the crate sliding?

1) A Red Car and a Blue Truck are driving down a winding road. Through the first curve in the road, the Red Car is driving twice as fast as the Blue Truck. The second curve is half the radius of the first, which causes the Red Car to slow down to half the speed of the Blue Truck to drive around the curve. Rank the acceleration each vehicle experiences in each curve from largest to smallest. -blue truck in...

While driving down the street, your friend’s car was hit by a truck from behind.  The mass of your friend’s car is 1500 kg while the truck is 1800kg.  Your friend was driving 25 mph or 11.2 m/s. Assume that collision causes both cars to stick together and they do not supply additional power to the wheels after the collision. After the collision, the two cars slide to a stop. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.65 for the car and truck...

You're watching a car race and observe one of the cars going around a banked circular curve. The bank is tilted at about 20 degrees, meaning that the car is tilted sideways by this much while driving around the bank. The curve seems to be a semicircle in shape, and you see the radius of the curvature is about 18.0 m. a. If the car's tangential speed is constant, then why does the car feel acceleration? b. Draw a force...

22-kg block of iron drops out of the back of pickup truck traveling at 55 mph. The block slides on the road for 150 m before coming to rest. (a) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the iron block and the road? (b) By roughly how much has the temperature of the iron increased? Assume that it gets about one-half of the thermal energy produced by its interaction with the road and assume that air resistance is negligible.
