A car is traveling at 47.0 km/h on a flat highway.

(a) If the coefficient of friction between road and tires on a rainy day is 0.107, what is the minimum distance in which the car will stop?

I kept getting 86.96302602 and it was wrong

(b) What is the stopping distance when the surface is dry and the coefficient of friction is 0.535?

A driver is traveling 120 km/h on a road with a negative 1% grade. There is a stalled car on the road 310 m ahead of the driver. The driver's vehicle has a braking efficiency of 90%, and it has antilock brakes. The road is in good condition. What is the minimum distance from the stalled car at which the driver could apply the brakes and still stop before hitting it? (Assume theoretical stopping distance, ignore air resistance, and frl...

Centripetal Acceleration: A car moving with a constant speed of 80 km/h enters a circular, flat curve with a radius of curvature of 0.50 km.  If the friction between the road and the car’s tires can support a centripetal acceleration of 1.20 m/s2, without slipping, does the car navigate the curve safely, or does it fly off the road? Perform calculations to justify your answer. Be sure to perform all the necessary dimensional conversions to mks units.

A curve of radius 20 m is banked so that a 1100 kg car traveling at 30 km/h can round it even if the road is so icy that the coefficient of static friction is approximately zero. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . Find the minimum speed at which a car can travel around this curve without skidding if the coefficient of static friction between the road and the tires is 0.3. Answer in units of m/s.
