Level Road & Rotating Platform

A curve in a level road has a radius 75 m. The maximum speed of a car turning this curved road can be 30 m/s without skidding. If radius of curved road is changed to 48 m and the coefficient of friction between the tyres and the road remains same, then maximum allowed speed would be ___________ m/s.

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Answer: 24

  1. vmax=μrgv_{max} = \sqrt{\mu r g}, so v∝rv \propto \sqrt{r} for the same μ\mu.
  2. v′=304875=300.64=30×0.8v' = 30\sqrt{\frac{48}{75}} = 30\sqrt{0.64} = 30 \times 0.8
  3. v′=24v' = 24 m/s
