A car is moving on a circular path and takes a turn. If `R_(1)` and `R_(2)` be the reactions on the inner and outer wheels, respectively, then

Options

A. `R_(1) = R_(2)`
B. `R_(1) lt R_(2)`
C. `R_(1) gt R_(2)`
D. `R_(1) ge R_(2)`

Answer

B

Explanation

Reaction on inner wheel `R_(1) = 1/2 M [g- (v^(2)h)/(ra)]`
Reaction on outer wheel `R_(2) = 1/2 M[g + (v^(2)h)/(ra)]`
`r to` radius of circular path
`2a to` distance between two wheel
`h to` height of center of gravity of car.
