Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 9CQ
On an icy road, you approach a curve that has the banking angle calculated for 55 mph. Your passenger suggests you slow down below 55 mph, just to be on the safe side, but you say that you should maintain your speed at 55 mph. (a) Who is correct, you or your passenger? (b) What would happen if you were to slow down (or speed up)? (c) Would your passenger’s suggestion be a good one on an unbanked road?
