The minimum velocity (in `ms^(-1)`)` with which a car driver must traverse a flat curve of radius 150 m and coefficient of friction 0.6 to avoid skidding is :

A

60

B

30

C

15

D

25

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Here `v=sqrt(murg)=sqrt(0.6xx150xx10)=30ms^(-1)`

A person is driving a vehicle at uniform speed of 5 m s^(-1) on a level curved track of radius 5m. The coefficient of static friction between tyres and road is 0.1. Will the person slip while taking the turn with the same speed ? Take g=10 ms^(-2) . Choose the correct statement.

A car of mass 1000 kg is negotiating an unbanked curve of radius 20 m. If the coefficient of friction is 0.5 and g = 10 m//s^(2) the maximum safe speed of the car is

A body of mass 5 kg moving with a velocity of 6 m s^(-1) collide with another body of mass 2 kg which is at rest. Afterwards they move in the same direction as before. If the velocity of the body of mass 2 kg 10 ms^(-1) , find the velocity and kinetic energy to the body of mass 5 kg.
