A front-wheel-drive car has mass of 680 kg, 4 roadwheels of diameter 530 mm, wheelbase 2.70 m, length 4.22 m, and width 1.84 m. Assume that the weight is distributed equally over the four wheels. The coefficient of static friction between the tyres and the road is 0.85. The gear ratio (roadwheel speed to engine speed) in first gear is 0.42. The engine develops torque of 280 Nm at zero speed.
1. What's the maximum acceleration of the car from a standing start on flat ground, if engine power and torque were unlimited?
