f = m a
μ m g = m (d / t²)
μ = (d / t²) / g = (1320 / 6²) / 32
the assumption is that all of the mass acts on the driving wheels
Drag race tires in contact with an asphalt surface probably have one of the higher coefficients of static friction in the everyday world. Assuming a constant acceleration and no slipping of tires estimate the coefficient of static friction for a drag racer that covers the quarter mile in 6.0s
