The 2990-lb car is traveling at 26 mi/hr when the driver applies the brakes, and the car continues to move along the circular path. What is the maximum deceleration possible (a, is negative if the speed is decreasing) if the tires are limited to a total horizontal friction force of 1940 Ib? 108 ft Answer: a = i ft/sec2
