An automobile driver traveling down an 8% grade slams on his brakes and skids 30 m before hitting a parked car. A lawyer hires an expert who measures the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and road to be k = 0.45. Is the lawyer correct to accuse the driver of exceeding the 25-MPH speed limit? Explain.
Why is the following situation impossible? A 1.30-kg toaster is not plugged in. The coefficient of static friction between the toaster and a horizontal countertop is 0.350. To make the toaster start moving, you carelessly pull on its electric cord. Unfortunately, the cord has become frayed from your previous similar actions and will break if the tension in the cord exceeds 4.00 N. By pulling on the cord at a particular angle, you successfully start the toaster moving without breaking the cord.

The following objects are moving in uniform circular motion. Draw a free-body diagram for each object and identify the force responsible for the centripetal acceleration. Object 1. A person riding on the barrel-of-fun ride (Fig. 6.27, top) Object 2. The lead object in the laboratory set-up (Fig. 6.27, center) Object 3. A jogger running on a circular track (Fig. 6.27, bottom)
A car is traveling at a speed of 120 km/h and attempts to take a turn. The coefficient of friction of the tires on the dry asphalt is 0.90. Determine the difference in the radius of the turn if the road is horizontal or banked at 20º into the turn (but the car is still turning on the horizontal plane). Draw Free Body Diagrams that clearly show the components of the forces that you need. You must show how you get to any equations you use (i.e. derive them from your FBD)

Circular turns of radius r in a race track are often banked at an angle θ to allow the cars to achieve higher speeds around the turns. Assume friction is not present, and use the coordinate system specified. Part (a) Find the y-component of the normal force FN on a car going around the turn in terms of the angle θ and the magnitude of the normal vector FN. Part (b) Find the x-component of the normal force FN on a car going around the turn in terms of the angle θ and the magnitude of the normal vector FN. Part (c) Now write the magnitude of the normal force in terms of the force of gravity Fg and the angle θ. Part (d) Now write the magnitude of the normal force again, this time in terms of the gravitational force Fg, g, θ, the radius of the track r, and the velocity that the car is traveling at v. Part (e) Now assume that the car is moving at 15 m/s and the radius of the track is 410 m. What is the angle θ in degrees?
