A : Banking of roads reduces the wear and tear of the tyres of automobiles.
R : By banking of the roads one component of the normal reaction on the automobile contributes to necessary centripetal force.

How does banking of roads reduce wear and tear of the tyres ?

How does banking of roadsreduce wear and tear of the tyres ?

(A) : A maximum possible speed of a car on banked curved road is greater than that on a flat curved road (R) : On a banked curved road horizontal component of normal reaction by road along with friction provides necessary centripetal force

(A) : A maximum possible speed of a car on banked curved road is greater than that on a flat curved road (R) : On a banked curved road horizontal component of normal reaction by road along with friction provides necessary centripetal force

Statement I: If a car is taking a turn on a banked road, then the normal contact force between car and road is greater than the weight of car (neglecting friction). Statement II: On a banked road, horizontal component of normal contact force between car and road provides necessary centripetal force. Assume friction is absent.
