A car is negotisting a curved road of radius `R` . The road is banked at an angle theta. The coefficient of friction between the tyres of the car and the road is `mu_(s)` . The maximum safe velocity on this road is:

A

`sqrt(gR^(2) (mu_(s) + tan theta)/(1 - mu_(s) tan theta ))`

B

`sqrt(gR (mu_(s) + tan theta)/(1 - mu_(s) tan theta ))`

C

`sqrt((g)/(R) (mu_(s) + tan theta)/(1 - mu_(s) tan theta ))`

D

`sqrt((g)/(R^(2)) (mu_(s) + tan theta)/(1 - mu_(s) tan theta ))`
