detailed solution
Correct option is D
For vertical equilibrium on the road, Ncosθ=mg+fsinθmg=Ncosθ-fsinθ……….(1)Centripetal force for safe turning, Nsinθ+fcosθ=mv2R…….(2)From eqns. (i) and (ii), we get v2Rg=Nsinθ+fcosθNcosθ-fsinθ⇒vmax2Rg=Nsinθ+μsNcosθNcosθ-μsNsinθvmax=Rgμs+tanθ1-μstanθTalk to our academic expert!
