An engineer wants to design a circular racetrack of radius r such that cars of mass m can go around the track at speed V without the aid of friction or other forces other than the perpendicular contact force from the track surface.
Find an expression for the required banking angle θ of the track, measured from the horizontal. Express the answer in terms of m, r, V, and g.
Suppose the race cars actually round the track at a speed w>V. What additional radial force Fr is required to keep the cars on the track at this speed? Express the answer in terms of m, r, V, w, and g.
For the normal force in the drawing to have the same magnitude at all points on the vertical track, the stunt driver must adjust the speed to be different at different points. Suppose, for example, that the track has a radius of 2.23 m and that the driver goes past point 1 at the bottom with a speed of 24.0 m/s. What speed must she have at point 3, so that the normal force at the top has the same magnitude as it did at the bottom?
