The sports car, having a mass of 1700 kg is travelling horizontally along a 20° banked track which is circular and has a radius of curvature of 100 m. If the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road is u = 0.2, determine the maximum constant speed at which car can travel without sliding up the slope. Neglect the size of the car.
