A 1900 kg car rounds a curve of radius 84.0 m banked at an angle of 11°. What is the maximum speed that the car can reach without skidding if the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 0.68?

Answer :

Answer:

The maximum speed of the car is 10.43 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the car, m = 1900 kg

Radius of the curve, r = 84 m

Angle of banking, [tex]\theta=11^{\circ}[/tex]

The coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 0.68. We need to find the maximum speed of the car. It is given by :

[tex]v=\sqrt{\mu r g\tan\theta}[/tex]

[tex]v=\sqrt{0.68\times 84\times 9.8\times \tan(11)}[/tex]

v = 10.43 m/s

So, the maximum speed of the car is 10.43 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

The maximum speed is 28.79 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of car = 1900 kg

Radius = 84.0 m

Angle = 11°

Coefficient static friction = 0.68

We need to calculate the maximum speed

Using formula of maximum speed

[tex]v_{max}=(rg\times\dfrac{\sin\theta+\mu\cos\theta}{\cos\theta-\mu\sin\theta})^{\frac{1}{2}}[/tex]

Where, r = radius

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value into the formula

[tex]v_{max}=(84.0\times9.8\times\dfrac{\sin11+0.68\times\cos11}{\cos11-0.68\times\sin11})^{\frac{1}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]v_{max}=28.79\ m/s[/tex]

Hence, The maximum speed is 28.79 m/s.
