For a banked curved road. The necessary centripetal force or any vehicle is provided by

A car is moving along the horizontal curved road . Then the normal reaction is

When a cyclist turns on a circular path,the necessary centripetal force is provided by friction between the tyres and the road. If centripetal force is not provided by friction, then for the vehicle to move on circular path, the track is banked. If the speed of a vehicle is doubled, then for safety of vehicle

When a cyclist turns on a circular path,the necessary centripetal force is provided by friction between the tyres and the road. If centripetal force is not provided by friction, then for the vehicle to move on circular path, the track is banked. The correct angle of banking for a curved smooth road of radius 120 m for a speed of 108 km//h(g=10 ms^(-2)) is

When a cyclist turns on a circular path,the necessary centripetal force is provided by friction between the tyres and the road. If centripetal force is not provided by friction, then for the vehicle to move on circular path, the track is banked. A cyclist going straight suddenly turns on wet road, then

Assertion : Improper banking of roads causes wear and tear of tyres. Reason : The necessary centripetal force is provided by the force of friction between the tyres and the road.
