Does the angle of banking depend on mass of the vehicle ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the angle of banking depends on the mass of the vehicle, we can analyze the forces acting on the vehicle when it is moving along a curved path. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Forces Acting on the Vehicle:** - The forces acting on the vehicle are: - The gravitational force (weight) acting downward, which is \( Mg \) (where \( M \) is the mass of the vehicle and \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity). - The normal force \( N \) acting perpendicular to the surface of the road. ...
