If this speed is based on what would be safe in wet weather, estimate the radius of curvature for a curve marked 45 km/hkm/h . the coefficient of static friction of rubber on wet concrete is î¼s=0.7î¼s=0.7, the coefficient of kinetic friction of rubber on wet concrete is î¼k=0.5î¼k=0.5

 r = 22.78 m

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

Axis y

                 N- W = 0

                 N = W

X axis

                F = m a

Where the acceleration is centripetal

               a = v² / r

The force is the friction that the formula has

               fr = μ N

               fr = μ mg

Let's replace

            μ m g = m v² / r

           r = v² / μ g

Let's reduce the speed to the SI system

         v = 45 km / h (1000 m / 1 km) (1h / 3600 s) = 12.5 m / s

          r = 12.5 2 / (0.7 9.8)

          r = 22.78 m
