$A$ car is negotiating a curved road of radius $R$. The road is banked at an angle $\theta$. The coefficient of friction between the tyres of the car and the road is $\mu_s$. The maximum safe velocity on this road is

  • A
    $\sqrt{gR\frac{\mu_s + \tan\theta}{1 - \mu_s\tan\theta}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{g}{R}\frac{\mu_s + \tan\theta}{1 - \mu_s\tan\theta}}$
  • C
    $\frac{g}{R^2}\frac{\mu_s + \tan\theta}{1 - \mu_s\tan\theta}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{gR^2\frac{\mu_s + \tan\theta}{1 - \mu_s\tan\theta}}$
