In the picture of the model below,
the factors of coefficient of friction, weight of the vehicle in
pounds, and radius in meters for the curve can be manipulated to
produce various results in the centripetal acceleration and maximum
speed to stay on the curve. When you run the model you should manipulate
the variables above by adjusting the sliders to see the model's
results in graphical form. This can be done by clicking on the :Run
the model link" in the yellow column. Be sure to try to change
the integration method for calculating and see if this changes the
results.
