The expression on the right hand side is the centripetal acceleration multiplied by mass, the force required to turn the vehicle. The left hand side is the maximum frictional force, which equals the coefficient of friction multiplied by the normal force. Rearranging the maximum cornering speed is
The same sound source is radiating sound waves at a constant frequency in the same medium. However, now the sound source is moving with a speed υ s = 0.7 c. Since the source is moving, the centre of each new wavefront is now slightly displaced to the right. As a result, the wave-fronts begin to bunch up on the right side (in front of) and ...
