A car is moving on a circular track of radius R. The road is banked at θ. μis the coefficient of friction. Find the maximum speed the car can have.
A
[cosθ+μsinθRg(sinθ+μcosθ)]1/2
B
[cosθ−μsinθRg(cosθ+μsinθ)]1/2
C
[cosθ−μsinθRg(sinθ+μcosθ)]1/2
D
None
Answer
[cosθ−μsinθRg(sinθ+μcosθ)]1/2
Explanation
Solution
vmax = [1−μtanθRg(tanθ+μ)]1/2 = [cosθ−μsinθRg(sinθ+μcosθ)]1/2
