A woman is riding a Jet Ski at a speed of 30 m/s and notices a seawall straight ahead. The farthest she can lean the craft in order to make a turn is 20°. This situation is like that of a car on a curve that is banked at an angle of 20°. If she tries to make the turn without slowing down, what is the minimum distance from the seawall that she can begin making her turn and still avoid a crash?
A 1500 kg vehicle is rounding a frictionless-banked curve which is elevated at 25°
incline. How fast must the vehicle be moving in order to maintain the same height all
the way around the curve? The curve has a 320 m radius of curvature at the roads
midpoint.
a 650 kg car is taking a circular turn with a radius of 225 m that is banked with a 20 grade. If there is a coefficient of friction of 0.20 between the tires and the road, what use the maximum velocity the car can go without slipping up or down the turn?
