Question: A 12kg turtle rests on the bed of a zookeeper's truck, which is traveling down a country road at 55mi/h. The zookeeper spots a deer in the road, and slows to a stop in 12s.

Part A: Assuming constant acceleration, what is the minimum coefficient of static friction between the turtle and truck bed surface that is needed to prevent the turtle from sliding?

I need help to find the minimum coefficient of static friction between the turtle and truck bed surface.
