JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 4.2 friction

A curved in a level road has a radius \(75\, m\). The maximum speed of a car turning this curved road can be \(30 \,m / s\) without skidding. If radius of curved road is changed to \(48\, m\) and the coefficient of friction between the tyres and the road remains same, then maximum allowed speed would be .........\(m / s\).

  1. A \(24\)
  2. B \(22\)
  3. C \(26\)
  4. D \(28\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(24\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f _{ smax }=\frac{ mv ^{2}}{ R }\) \(\mu mg =\frac{ mv ^{2}}{ R }\) \(v =\sqrt{\mu Rg }\) \(\frac{ v _{2}}{ v _{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{ R _{2}}{ R _{1}}}\) \(\frac{ v _{2}}{30}=\sqrt{\frac{48}{75}}\) \(v _{2}=24 \,m / s\)
