CBSEENPH11020580

A car of mass 1000 kg negotiates a banked curve of radius 90m on a frictionless road. If the banking angle is 45o, the speed of the car is 

  • 20 ms-1

  • 30ms-1

  • 5 ms-1

  • 10 ms-1

Solution

B.

30ms-1

The angle of banking
tan space straight theta space equals space straight v squared over rg
Given comma space straight theta space equals space 45 to the power of straight o comma space straight r equals space 90 space straight m
space and space straight g space equals space 10 space straight m divided by straight s squared
tan space 45 to the power of straight o space equals space fraction numerator straight v squared over denominator 90 space straight x space 10 end fraction
straight v space equals space square root of 90 space straight x 10 space straight x space tan space 45 to the power of straight o end root
speed space of space car space straight v space equals space 30 space straight m divided by straight s
