A car traveling at 30 m/s is at the bottom of a depression. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road is μk = 0.8. The instantaneous radius of curvature of the car’s path is 200 m. If the driver applies the brakes and the car’s wheel’s lock, what is the resulting deceleration of the car in the direction tangential to its path? Compare your answer to that of Problem 14.91.
