Skid is driving his classy ride at 90 mi/hr down I-57 to Champaign for his gig at The Blind Pig. Since his Yugo is obviously a custom job, he does not have ABS brakes. While texting Mitch about the set list for the show, he looks up and notices he is about to crash into a stopped car. When he is 170 m from the car he puts on the brakes. (a) Calculate the coefficient of friction Skid needs so that he stops just before he hits the car. (b) If the coefficients of kinetic and static friction are actually 0.3 and 0.6, respectively, and based on what we discussed in class on this topic, is it possible for Skid not to crash into the car
