A car travels along a level road with speed v = 25 m/s (about 50 mi/h). The coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the pavement is (a) If the driver applies the brakes and the tires “lock up” so that they skid along the road, how far does the car travel before it comes to a stop? (b) If the same car is traveling downhill along a road that makes an angle , how much does the car’s stopping distance increase? (c) What is the stopping distance on an uphill road with ?
