Consider a circular road of radius 20 meter banked at an angle of 15 degree. With what speed a car has to move on the turn so that it will have safe turn?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`v=( sqrt(rg tan theta))=sqrt(20xx9.8xx tan 15^(@)) = sqrt(20xx9.8xx0.26)=7.1 ms^(-1)`
The safe speed for the car on this road is `7.1 ms^(-1)`
