Derive the expression on maximum speed of circular motion of a car on a banked road |
|
Answer» Consider the attachment; From the diagram, N= mgcosθ + Fc sinθ --(i) and, Fc cosθ = mgsinθ + μN (ii) COMBINING these two together by substituting the value, of N in the SECOND equation, Fc cosθ = mg sinθ + μ(mgcosθ + Fc sinθ) Solving FURTHUR, Fc cosθ - μFc sinθ= mg SIN θ + μmgcosθ Since Fc= mv²/r Solving furthur, Here, v = maximum velocity, r = radius of the banking, Fc= centripetal force, μ= coefficient of friction and N= normal reaction froce. |
