The coefficient of static friction for the tires of a race car is 0.950 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.800. The ca
r is on a level circular track of 50.0 m radius on a planet where g = 2.45 m/s² compared to Earth's g=9.8m/s². The maximum safe speed on the track on the planet is ____ times as large as the maximumsafe speed on Earth.a. 0.250b. 0.500c. 1.00d. 2.00e. 4.00
<em>For the condition of safe speed the centripetal force must be equal to the static frictional force so that the wheels of the car do not slip in tangential direction or into the curvature of turn.</em>
