A car of mass `1500kg` is moving with a speed of `12.5ms^(-1)` on a circular path of radius `20m` on a level road What should be the frictional force to avoid slipping of car Calculate the cofficient of friction .

A

`0.2`

B

`0.4`

C

`0.6`

D

0.8`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

In this case centripetal force provides by friction
`therefore (mv^(2))/(r)=mumg`
`i.r., mu=(v^(2))/(rg)`
`mu(12.5xx12.5)/(20xx9.8)=0.8`
