If a car takes a banked curve at less than the ideal speed,
friction is needed to keep it from sliding toward the inside of the
curve (a real problem on icy mountain roads).
(c) If the coefficient of static friction between the tires of
the car and the road is 0.86, what is the maximum speed the car can
take the curve without slipping off the road?
