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
A block of mass $10\, kg$ moving at $10\,m/s$ is released to slide on rough surface having coefficient of friction $0.2.$ It will stop by travelling distance ........ $m$
A plank is resting on a horizontal ground in the northern hemisphere of the earth at a $45^{\circ}$ latitude. Let the angular speed of the earth be $\omega$ and its radius $r_e$. The magnitude of the frictional force on the plank will be
A small block starts slipping down from a point $B$ on an inclined plane $A B,$ which is making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal section $BC$ is smooth and the remaining section $CA$ is rough with a coefficient of friction $\mu .$ It is found that the block comes to rest as it reaches the bottom (point $A)$ of the inclined plane. If $B C=2A C$, the coefficient of friction is given by $\mu=k \tan \theta$ .The value of $k$ is
A block of mass $10 \,kg$ is released on rough incline plane. Block start descending with acceleration $2 \,m / s ^2$. Kinetic friction force acting on block is ..... $N$ (take $g=10 \,m / s ^2$ )
Radius of the curved road on national highway is $R$. Width of the road is $b$. The outer edge of the road is raised by $h$ with respect to inner edge so that a car with velocity $v$ can pass safe over it. The value of $h$ is
A railway line is taken round a circular arc of radius $1000\ m$ , and is banked by raising the outer rail $h$ $m$ above the inner rail. If the lateral force on the inner rail when a train travels round the curve at $10\ ms^{-1}$ is equal to the lateral force on the outer rail when the train's speed is $20\ ms^{-1}$ . The value of $4g\ tan\theta $ is equal to : (The distance between the rails is $1.5\ m$ )
