Question
Why are road's banked at turning ?
Open in App
Solution
If the road is banked, so that the outer edge is above the inner edge, then a
portion of the normal force from the road on the tires
points towards the center of the track; this fraction of the normal force can
provide enough centripetal force to keep the car moving in a circle.
