Question

Banked Curves: A 600-kg car is going around a banked curve with a radius of 110 m at a steady speed of 24.5 m/s. What is the appropriate banking angle so that the car stays on its path without the assistance of friction

Answer 1

The angle of baking from the calculation is obtained as 30°.

What is banking?

The term banking refers to a means of preventing vehicles from skidding off the road at curves.

We know that the banking angle is obtained from;

θ = tan-1(v^2/rg)

v = 24.5 m/s

r = 110 m

g = 9.8 m/s^2

θ = tan-1(25^2/9.8 * 110)

θ = tan-1(625 /1078)

θ = 30°
