A circular racetrack of
radius 300 m is banked at an angle of 15°
If the coefficient of friction between the
wheels of a race-car and the road is 0.2
what is the (a) optimum speed of the race-
car to avoid wear and tear on its tyres, and
(b) maximum permissible speed to avoid
slipping?

(a) Optimum speed of car is
tanθ=
rg
v
2
v
2
=rgtanθ
=10×300×tan15
v
2
=780m/s
v=28m/s
(b) Maximum permissible speed to avoid slipping is
v
m
=
Rg(
1−μtanθ
μ+tanθ
)
=
300×10(
1−0.2tan15
0.2+tan15
)
=
1458.7
=38.19m/s
