Circular MotionHard
Question
A curved section of a road is banked for a speed v. If there is no friction between road and tyres of the car, then:
Options
A.car is more likely to slip at speeds higher than v than speeds lower than v
B.car cannot remain in static equilibrium on the curved section
C.car will not slip when moving with speed v
D.none of the above
Solution
There is no friction between road and tyres of car so that car cannot remain in static equilibrium on curved section. Whenever speed of car is greater than or less than v car will slip.
