A car of mass $1000\, kg$ negotiates a banked curve of radius $90\, m$ on a frictionless road. If the banking angle is $45^o $, the speed of the car is ....... $ms^{-1}$

A$20$
B$10$
C$30$
D$5$

Solution

$Here,\,m = 1000\,kg.\,R = 90\,m,\,\theta  = {45^ \circ }$
For$\,banking,\tan \theta  = \frac{{{v^2}}}{{Rg}}$
or$\,v = \sqrt {Rg\tan \theta }  = \sqrt {90 \times 10 \times \tan {{45}^ \circ }}$
$= 30\,m\,{s^{ – 1}}$
