A car is racing on a circular track of 180m radius with a speed of 32 ms-1. What should be the banking angle of the road to avoid chances of skidding of the vehicle at this speed without taking into consideration the friction between the tyre and the road?
15o
A stone of mass 'm' tied to a string of length is rotated in a circle with the other end of the string as the centre. The speed of the stone is 'v'. If the string breaks, the stone will
