$A$ horizontal curve on a racing track is banked at a $45^o$ angle. When a vehicle goes around this curve at the curve's safe speed (no friction needed to stay on the track),what is its centripetal acceleration?

  • A
    $g$
  • B
    $2g$
  • C
    $0.5g$
  • D

The radius of a curved road on a national highway is $R$. The width of the road is $b$. The outer edge of the road is raised by $h$ with respect to the inner edge so that a car with velocity $v$ can pass safely over it. The value of $h$ is

$A$ railway line is taken round a circular arc of radius $1000 \ m$,and is banked by raising the outer rail $h \ m$ above the inner rail. If the lateral force on the inner rail when a train travels round the curve at $10 \ ms^{-1}$ is equal to the lateral force on the outer rail when the train's speed is $20 \ ms^{-1}$,then the value of $4g \tan \theta$ is equal to: (The distance between the rails is $1.5 \ m$)
