If the road of the previous problem is horizontal (no banking), what should be the minimum friction coefficeint so that a scooter going at 18 km/hr does not skid?

A

0.25

B

0.18

C

0.3

D

0.4

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`v = sqrt(mu R g)` `:.` `mu = (v^(2))/(g R) = ((5)^(2))/(10 xx 10) = 0.25`
