Asked by Jennifer

What is the frictional force between the tires of a 2000 kg car and an asphalt road if the coefficient of friction is 1.2?
Answered by drwls
Are the tires rolling or skidding? If rolling, it depends upon whether the car is accelerating or not. The friction force can be quite low if the car is cruising at constant speed.

If skidding, the friction force on all tires combined is M*g*1.2 = 23520 N
