Jeff Gordon (a race-car driver) discovers that he can acceler- ate at 4.0 m/s 2 without spinning his tires, but if he tries to accelerate more rapidly, he always burns rubber.

Compare the distance required to bring the car to a full stop when (a) the car is skidding and (b) when the wheels are not locked up. Use the coeffcients of kinetic and static friction from Table 3.2 and assume the tires are rubber and the road is dry concrete.
