$A$ car of mass $1000\,kg$ negotiates a banked curve of radius $90\,m$ on a frictionless road. If the banking angle is $45^\circ$,the maximum speed of the car is ............ $m/s$ $[g = 10\,m/s^2]$.

What is the angle of banking of a railway track of radius of curvature $250 \,m$, if the maximum velocity of the train is $90 \,km/h$? $(g=10 \,ms^{-2})$

$A$ 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 $1.5 \ m$)
