Find maximum deceleration given angle
Calculate the maximum deceleration of a car that is heading down a 6° slope (one that makes an angle of 6° with the horizontal) under the following road conditions. You may assume that the weight of the car is evenly distributed on all four tires and that the static coefficient of friction is involved--that is, the tires are not allowed to slip during the deceleration.
A) on dry concrete, given us=1.0
B) on wet concrete, given us= 0.7
C) on ice, given us=0.100
