Answer:  Add an incline or grade to the road track.

Explanation:
Refer to the figure shown below.

When a vehicle travels on a level road in a circular path of radius r, a centrifugal force, F, tends to make the vehicle skid away from the center of the circular path.
The magnitude of the force is
F = mv²/r
where
m = mass of the vehicle
v =  linear (tangential) velocity to the circular path.

The force that resists the skidding of the vehicle is provided by tractional frictional force at the tires, of magnitude
μN = μW = μmg
where
μ = dynamic coefficient of friction.

At high speeds, the frictional force will not overcome the centrifugal force, and the vehicle will skid.

When an incline of θ degrees is added to the road track, the frictional force is augmented by the component of the weight of the vehicle along the incline.
 Therefore the force that opposes the centrifugal force becomes
μN + Wsinθ = W(sinθ + μ cosθ).

What is the density of a piece of quartz with a mass of 30g and a volume of 6cm^3
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf d= 5 \ g/cm^3}}

Explanation:

Density can be found by dividing the mass by the volume.

d=\frac{m}{v}

The mass of the quartz is 30 grams and the volume is 6 cubic centimeters.

m=30 \ g \\v= 6 \ cm^3

Substitute the values into the formula.

d=\frac{30 \ g}{6 \ cm^3}

Divide.

d= 5 \ g/cm^3

The density of this piece of quartz is 5 grams per cubic centimeter.
