A car rounds an unbanked curve of radius 65 m. If the coefficient of static friction between the road and car is 0.70, what is the maximum speed at which the car can traverse the curve without slipping?

v = 21.127 m/s

Explanation:

Let's start off with the equation for centrifugal force:

This force has to be equal to the force of friction which is:

  (where u = coefficient of friction and R = mass * gravity )

Assumption: The car is travelling on horizontal ground

We can set the above equations equal to one another to get:

(m*v^2)/r = u * (m * 9.81)

here u = 0.7

r = 65

and mass cancels out on each side

Solving for v, we get:

v = 21.127 m/s

the answer is false. this is because for ice to melt, it requires latent heat of melting. latent heat means heat energy required to change phase without any increase in temperatures. therefore, the ice will take energy from the environment to melt hence atmospheric temperatures will reduce.
