Problem

A 1500 kg1500\,\text{kg} car travels at a constant speed over a hump-backed bridge. The bridge profile is a circular arc of radius 40 m40\,\text{m}. Calculate the maximum speed the car can maintain at the highest point of the bridge without losing contact with the road. (Take g=10 m/s2g = 10\,\text{m/s}^{2})
