Two curves on a highway have the same radii. However, one is
unbanked and the other is banked at an angle of degrees. A car can safely travel along the
unbanked curve at a maximum speed under conditions when the coefficient of
static friction between the tures and the road is . The banked curve is frictionless, and the
car can negotiate it at the same maximum speed . Find the coefficient of static friction
between the tires and the...

The radius of curvature of a highway exit is r = 95.5 m. The
surface of the exit road is horizontal, not banked. (See
figure.)
If the static friction between the tires and the surface of the
road is ?s = 0.408, then what is the maximum speed at
which the car can exit the highway safely without sliding?
