Interactive Exercises 5

The figure shows the top view of a horizontal road with two circular lanes. Assume the maximum value of the forces providing the centripetal force for the car in lane 1 and 2 are the same. Would the car's highest speed in lane 2 be smaller than, larger than or the same as that in lane 1? Explain your answer.
Sequence the following steps into proper order and Select the proper type of Genre.
Hence the speed in lane 2 would be smaller.	Select StepStep 1Step 2Step 3Step 4
The radius of lane 2 is smaller than that of lane 1.	Select StepStep 1Step 2Step 3Step 4
Now given that the maximum centripetal force remains the same, a smaller radius of curvature will only allow a smaller speed, since v2 ∝ r.	Select StepStep 1Step 2Step 3Step 4
The car's highest speed in lane 2 would be smaller.	Select StepStep 1Step 2Step 3Step 4
