Asked by Matt
You approach a slight bump in the road on the highway in a car. The bump carries you into a circular (convex) vertical arc of radius 39m.
A) choosing two different cars ( it is for you to choose 2 particular models, providing the mass of each), at what maximum speed can you travel (in km/h) before you lift off the bump into the air? (Consider only what forces exist exactly as you are leaving the road.)
B) what is the effect of changing mass in your calculated values above? Explain.

radius 39m? That is quite a bump.
max speed:
v^2/r=9.8
solve for v
max speed:
v^2/r=9.8
solve for v
