What is Banked curve: Definition and 109 Discussions
A banked turn (or banking turn) is a turn or change of direction in which the vehicle banks or inclines, usually towards the inside of the turn. For a road or railroad this is usually due to the roadbed having a transverse down-slope towards the inside of the curve. The bank angle is the angle at which the vehicle is inclined about its longitudinal axis with respect to the horizontal.
A car is turning on a banked curve. The coefficient static friction between the car and the pavement is 0.30 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.25.
The angle of the banking is 25 degrees, and the radius of the curve is 50 m. What is the minimum speed the car can have before sliding...
Hi could some of you guys please help me with question, its question 77 in Understand Physics By Cummings.
For those that don't have access to the book its a question dealing with a banked curve with radius R and a angle alpha. Now there is also a friction force stoping the car from sliding...
How would I go about solving this problem?
Determine the minimum angle at which a road should be banked so that a car traveling at 21.5 m/s can safely negotiate the curve if the radius of the curve is 159 m.
If anyone has any sites explaining how to as well I'd appreciate it if you could...
On a banked race track, the smallest circular path on which cars can move has a radius r1 = 111 m, while the largest has a radius r2 = 163 m. The height of the outer wall is 18 m.
(a) Find the smallest speed at which cars can move on this track without relying on friction.
(b) Find the...
Hey all! Brand new to PF. Anyway, I'm having trouble with a problem involving centripital force. Here are the givens:
Friction coefficient = .49
Angle = 19 degrees
Radius = 46m
mass= 1200 kg
Question - How fast can the car take the curve without skidding to the outside? Thanks ahead of...
hi. I'm new here and I just have a quick question. I have tried to figure out this problem, but I am just not sure where to go since there is not a lot given. If someone could give me some more direction, that would be great.
PROBLEM: " A car can negotiate an unbanked curve safely at a...
Hey everyone, I could use some help with this problem.
What coefficient of friction is required to make a 25 degree banked curve safe at 90. km/h, if without friction it is safe at 60. km/h?
Any help would be appriciated.
Hi, I've been working on this problem for a while and i keep on getting same answer! Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong.
PROBLEM:
A circular curve is banked so that a car traveling with uniform speed rouding the curve usualy relys on friction to keep it from slipping to its...
