Calculate the maximum acceleration of a car that is heading down a 6.00slope (one that makes an angle of 6.00with the horizontal) under the following road conditions. You may assume that the weight of the car is evenly distributed on all four tires and that the coefficient of static friction is involved—hat Is, the tires are not allowed to slip during the deceleration. (Ignore rolling.) Calculate for a car (a) On dry concrete. (b) On wet concrete. (c) On ice, assuming that s=0.100 , the same as for shoes on ice.
