The center of gravity of the vehicle is 0.94 m above the ground, and is assumed to be located midway between the wheels on the left and right sides. The separation between these wheels is the track width and is 1.7 m. What is the greatest speed at which the SUV can negotiate the turn without rolling over?Would it be something like (mg)(0.85m) = (mv^2/r)(0.94m), solve for v</blockquote>
