    For traffic moving at \[60\text{ }km/h\]along a circular track of radius \[0.1\text{ }km,\]the correct angle of banking is

    A)  \[{{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \frac{{{60}^{2}}}{0.1} \right)\]

    B)  \[{{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \frac{{{(50/3)}^{2}}}{100\times 9.8} \right)\]

    C)  \[{{\tan }^{-1}}{{(60\times 0.1\times 9.8)}^{1/2}}\]

    D)  \[{{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \frac{100\times 9.8}{{{(50/3)}^{2}}} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    For a body moving with velocity v on a circular track of radius R, the angle of banking is given by \[\tan \theta =\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{Rg}\] Given, \[v=60km/h=\frac{60\times 1000}{60\times 60}=\frac{50}{3}m/s\] \[R=0.1km=100m\] \[\tan \theta =\frac{{{\left( \frac{50}{3} \right)}^{2}}}{100\times 9.8}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\theta ={{\tan }^{-1}}\left( \frac{{{(50/3)}^{2}}}{100\times 9.8} \right)\]
