Question:

As we saw in the chapter, wings on race cars push them into the track. The increased normal force makes large friction forces possible. At one Formula One racetrack, cars turn around a halfcircle with diameter \(190 \mathrm{~m}\) at \(68 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). For a \(610 \mathrm{~kg}\) vehicle, the approximate minimum static friction force to complete this turn is A. \(6000 \mathrm{~N}\)

B. \(15,000 \mathrm{~N}\)

C. \(18,000 \mathrm{~N}\)

D. \(24,000 \mathrm{~N}\)

E. \(30,000 \mathrm{~N}\)
