Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the angle at which a railway track must be banked for safe running of trains at a speed of 90 km/h on a curve with a radius of 300 m, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert Speed from km/h to m/s:** \[ \text{Speed (v)} = 90 \, \text{km/h} = 90 \times \frac{1000 \, \text{m}}{3600 \, \text{s}} = 25 \, \text{m/s} \] ...
