Compute the all parts of given question:

Question: It is possible to calculate the coefficient of friction between a vehicle's tires and the road by measuring the vehicle's stopping distance. A driver moving with a speed 70mph on a level highway slams on her anti-lock brakes. The pavement is wet, and the car covers83m (four-fifths of a football field!) before reaching a stop. Answer the following, being sure to invoke a complete free body diagram to support the application of Newton's Second Law to this situation.

Part A: What is the car's acceleration while braking?

Part B: What is the type of friction arising between the tires and the road?

Part C: What is the coefficient of friction between the wet road and the tires?

I need help to determine the coefficient of friction between the wet road and the tires.
