JEE Main & Advanced Physics NLM, Friction, Circular Motion Question Bank Kinetic Friction

  • question_answer
    The maximum speed that can be achieved without skidding by a car on a circular unbanked road of radius R and coefficient of static friction \[\mu \], is              [NCERT 1990]

    A)             \[\mu Rg\]       

    B)               \[Rg\sqrt{\mu }\]

    C)                         \[\mu \sqrt{Rg}\]                   

    D)                         \[\sqrt{\mu Rg}\]            

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                                In the given condition the required centripetal force is provided by frictional force between the road and tyre.             \[\frac{m{{v}^{2}}}{R}=\mu \,mg\]  \[\therefore \]  \[v=\sqrt{\mu \ Rg}\]
