Questions  

A car moves along a horizontal circular road of radius r with velocity v .The coefficient of friction between the wheels and the road is \large \mu . Which of the following statement is not true?

a
The car will slip if
b
The car will slip if
c
The car will slip if
d
the car will slip at lower speed, if it moves with some tangential acceleration, than if it moves at constant speed.

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Centripetal force is supplied by the frictional force of where f = mV2 / r.Now , fmax = µ . mg.: The car will slip if f > fmaxi,e if mV2 / r > µ mgi.e if r < V2/µg
