Banking of Roads & Bridges

A vehicle is moving with uniform speed along 3 different shaped roads as horizontal, concave and convex. The surface of road on which, the normal reaction on vehicle is maximum is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Horizontal: N=mgN = mg.
  2. Convex (top): N=mg−mv2rN = mg - \frac{mv^2}{r}, less than mgmg.
  3. Concave (bottom): N=mg+mv2rN = mg + \frac{mv^2}{r}, more than mgmg.
  4. So the answer is (b) concave.
