A car of mass \(m\) is moving on a level circular track of radius \(R\). If \(\mu_s\) represent the static friction between the road and tyres of the car, then the maximum speed of the car in circular motion is given by:
1. | \(\sqrt{\mu_{s} mRg} \) | 2. | \(\sqrt{Rg / \mu_{s}}\) |
3. | \(\sqrt{mRg / \mu_{s}} \) | 4. | \(\sqrt{\mu_{s} {Rg}}\) |
Two stones of masses \(m\) and \(2m\) are whirled in horizontal circles, the heavier one in a radius \(\frac{r}{2}\) and the lighter one in the radius \(r.\) The tangential speed of lighter stone is \(n\) times that of heavier stone when they experience the same centripetal forces. The value of \(n\) is:
1. | \(2\) | 2. | \(3\) |
3. | \(4\) | 4. | \(1\) |
A long horizontal rod has a bead which can slide along its length, and initially placed at a distance L from one end A of the rod. The rod is set in angular motion about A with constant angular acceleration . If the coefficient of friction between the rod and the bead is μ, and gravity is neglected, then the time after which the bead starts slipping is

A car of mass \(1000\) kg negotiates a banked curve of radius \(90\) m on a frictionless road. If the banking angle is of \(45^\circ,\) the speed of the car is:
