In the Figure we show a car ridding around in a circle in a banked highway. In this situation a car is basically driving around in an inclined plane. The radius the car is making is 50 m, the angle of the inclined plane is 30°, and the coefficient of static friction between the road and the tires of the car is 0.5. What is the maximum speed a car can have so that it wont slide up the inclined plane as it is going around in a circle? DRAW A FREE-BODY DIAGRAM FOR THIS SITUATION IN THE FIGURE BELOW. Answer: 27.2 m/sec C Ө
