Questions and Answers

In the context of the given equations, what does the term 'μ' represent?

  • Resultant of frictional forces
  • Angle of banking
  • Coefficient of friction (correct)
  • Weight of the vehicle
  • Based on the equations, what is the expression for the resultant of horizontal components (f cos θ + N sin θ)?

  • $mg \cos \theta$
  • $mv^2/r$
  • $f \cos \theta + N \sin \theta$ (correct)
  • $N \cos \theta + f \sin \theta$
  • What is the equation for finding the angle of banking (θ) for the maximum velocity (v) on a banked road?

  • $\tan\theta = (v^2 - μrg)/(rg + μv^2)$
  • $v^2 = rg(μ+ \tan\theta)/(1-μ\tan\theta)$ (correct)
  • $f = μN$
  • $N = mg/\cos\theta - μ\sin\theta$
  • What does the equation N cos θ + f sin θ = mg represent in the context of forces on a banked road?
