Physics Quiz 10


Assume the following:

- skid-steer vehicle with 4 standard non-treaded wheels

- square drivebase: trackwidth = 2 ft, wheelbase = 2ft

- coefficient of kinetic friction 0.7, independent of speed and direction

- center of mass 150 pounds is located at center of geometry

- left wheels being driven forward at tangential speed 2 ft/sec

- right wheels being driven backward at tangential speed 2 ft/sec


At steady state, how fast is the robot rotating?
