A car with a constant speed of 85 km/h enters a circular flat curve with a radius of curvature of 0.500 km. What's the centripetal acceleration of the car. If the coefficient of friction between tires and roads is 1.2, then will the car stay on the road or will it skid off the road?

A car with a constant speed of 83km/h enters a circular flatcurvewith a radius of curvature of 0.4km/h. If the friction betweentheroad and the car's tires can supply a centripetal accelerationof1.25m/s2 , does the car negotiate the curvesafely?Justify your answer.

I know you have to convert km/h to m/s.
And the radius to 400m.

Do you solve using Ff = Fc, and subinformulas? How would you use the force of friction when youdon'thave a coefficient of friction?

Thanks! :)
