Q. No.A car is negotiating a curved road of radius \(R\). The road is banked at an angle \(\theta\). The coefficient of friction between the tyre of the car and the road is \(\mu_s\). The maximum safe velocity on this road is:
| 1. | \(\sqrt{\operatorname{gR}\left(\dfrac{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}+\tan \theta}{1-\mu_{\mathrm{s}} \tan \theta}\right)}\) | 2. | \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{g}}{\mathrm{R}}\left(\dfrac{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}+\tan \theta}{1-\mu_{\mathrm{s}} \tan \theta}\right)}\) |
| 3. | \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{g}}{\mathrm{R}^2}\left(\dfrac{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}+\tan \theta}{1-\mu_{\operatorname{s}} \tan \theta}\right)}\) | 4. | \(\sqrt{\mathrm{gR}^2\left(\dfrac{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}+\tan \theta}{1-\mu_{\mathrm{s}} \tan \theta}\right)}\) |

A car of mass \(1000\) kg negotiates a banked curve of radius \(90\) m on a frictionless road. If the banking angle is of \(45^\circ,\) the speed of the car is:
| 1. | \(20\) ms–1 | 2. | \(30\) ms–1 |
| 3. | \(5\) ms–1 | 4. | \(10\) ms–1 |

A car of mass \(m\) is moving on a level circular track of radius \(R\). If \(\mu_s\) represents the static friction between the road and tyres of the car, the maximum speed of the car in circular motion is given by:
| 1. | \(\sqrt{\dfrac{Rg}{\mu_s} }\) | 2. | \(\sqrt{\dfrac{mRg}{\mu_s}}\) |
| 3. | \(\sqrt{\mu_s Rg}\) | 4. | \(\sqrt{\mu_s m Rg}\) |
