Answer:

N~ f fric m 1~g The acceleration of the car can be calculated using v2 f v 2 i = 2a x a = v2 2 x = (72000 3600) 2 2 30 = 6:67m=s2 On the other hand, Projecting 2nd Law on the y-axis gives N=mg; For the book to slide o the seat, acceleration should overcome frction: f s < ma sN < ma smg < ma s = 0:650 < a g = 6:67 9:81 = 0:68
