In a recent study of how mice negotiate turns, the mice ran around a circular 90 degree turn on a track with a radius of 0.15 m. The maximum speed measured for a mouse (mass = 18.5 g) running around this turn was 1.29 m/s. What is the minimum coefficient of friction between the track and the mouse’s feet that would allow a turn at this speed?
