The coefficient of kinetic friction betweenthe tires of your car and the roadway is m. (a) If your initial speed isv and you lock your tires during braking, how far do you skid? Giveyour answer in terms of v, m, and m, the mass of your car. (b) If youdouble your speed, what happens to the stopping distance? (c) Whatis the stopping distance for a truck with twice the mass of your car,assuming the same initial speed and coefficient of kinetic friction?
