Example: F1 Car
A modern F1 car is designed so that the passing air pushes
down on it, allowing the car to travel much faster through a flat
turn in a Grand Prix without friction failing. This downward push
is called negative lift or down force.
The following figure represents an F1 car of mass m = 600 kg
as it travels on a flat track in a circular arc of radius R = 100 m.
Because of the shape of the → car and the wings on it, the
passing air exerts a negative lift FL downward on the car. Take
μs = 0.75 and assume that the forces on the four tires are
identical.

does not have to concern
about sliding?

A Puck on A Table
A puck of mass m = 1.5 kg slides in a circle of radius r = 20 cm
on a frictionless table while attached to a hanging cylinder of
mass M = 2.5 kg by a cord through a hole in the table.
What speed keeps the cylinder at rest?
