Before 1960, people believed that the maximum attainable coefficient of static friction for an automobile tire on a roadway was

?s = 1. Around 1962, three companies independently developed racing tires with coefficients of 1.6. This problem shows that tires have improved further since then. The shortest time interval in which a piston-engine car initially at rest has covered a distance of one-quarter mile is about 4.43 s. (A) Assume the car's rear wheels lift the front wheels off the pavement as shown in the figure above. What minimum value of ?s is necessary to achieve the record time?

Answer:

4.18

Explanation:

Givens  

The car's initial velocity  v_{i}= 0 and covering a distance Δx = 1/4 mi = 402.336 m in a time interval t = 4.43 s.  

Knowns

We know that the maximum static friction force is given by:

f_{s_max} =μ_s*n                         (1)

Where μ_s is the coefficient of static friction and n is the normal force.  

Calculations  

(a) First, we calculate the acceleration needed to achieve this goal by substituting the given values into a proper kinematic equation as follows:

Δx=v_{i} +\frac{1}{2} at^2

a=41 m/s

This is the acceleration provided by the engine. Applying Newton's second law on the car, so in equilibrium, when the car is about to move, we find that:  

f_{y}=n-mg=0\\ n=mg\\f_{x}=F-f_{s,max} =0\\ f_{s,max}=F=ma\\

Substituting (3) into (1), we get:

f_{s,max}= μ_s*m*g

Equating this equation with (4), we get:

ma=  μ_s*m*g

 μ_s=a/g

      =4.18

A 63.3 kg wood board is resting on very smooth ice in the middle of a frozen lake. A 35.7 kg boy stands at one end of the board.
Vlada [557]

The velocity of the board relative to the ice is zero, since both are at rest.

<h3>What is relative velocity?</h3>

Relative velocity is the velocity of an object in relation to another reference object or point.

When two objects are travelling or moving with the same velocity in the same direction, the relative velocity one relative to the other is zero.

Also, when two objects are at rest, the relative velocity one relative to the other is zero.

Therefore, the velocity of the board relative to the ice is zero, since both are at rest.
