A car moving with a constant speed of 85 km/h enters a circular, flat curve with a radius of curvature of 0.40 km. If the friction between the road and the car’s tires can support a centripetal acceleration of 1.25 m/s2, without slipping, does the car navigate the curve safely, or does it fly off the road?
