Answer:
Banking of roads : To avoid risk of skidding as well as to reduce the wear and tear of the car tyres, the road surface at a bend is tilted inwards, i.e., the outer side of road is raised above its inner side. This is called 'banking of roads'.
Consider a car taking a left turn along a road of radius r banked at an angle θ for a designed optimum speed V. Let m be the mass of the car. In general, the forces acting on the car are:
(a) Its weight
mg
, acting vertically down
(b) The normal reaction of the road
N
, perpendicular to the road surface
(c) The frictional force
f
s
along the inclined surface of the road.
Resolve
N
and
f
s
into two perpendicular components Ncosθ vertically up and
f
s
sinθ vertically down, Nsinθ and
f
s
cosθ horizontally towards the centre of the circular path.
If v

is the maximum safe speed without skidding.

and
Ncosθ=mg+f

∴mg=N(cosθ−μ

Dividing eq. (1) by eq. (2),

=
N(cosθ−μ

N(sinθ+μ

...,.(3)
This is the expression for the maximum safe speed on a banked road.
At the optimum speed, the friction between the car tyres and the road surface is not called into play. Hence, by setting μ
s
=0 in eq. (3), the optimum speed on a banked circular road is
v=
rgtanθ
...(4)
∴tanθ=
rg
v

or θ=tan

(

From this eq. we see that θ depends upon v,r and g. The angle of banking is independent of the mass of a vehicle negotiating the curve.
