Estimate the speed of the van

Reference no: EM13666612

At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a van's skid mark to be 86 meter long. It was a rainy day and the coefficient of kinetic friction was determined to be 0.44. Use these data to estimate the speed of the van when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes (g = 9.8 m/s2).
