Problem

A residential street includes a frictionless banked turn of radius 120 m120\,\text{m}. For what banking angle should the turn be engineered so that drivers traveling at 25 m ⁣⋅ ⁣s−125\,\text{m}\!\cdot\!\text{s}^{-1} can negotiate the curve without relying on tire friction? a) 32∘32^{\circ} b) 62∘62^{\circ} c) 28∘28^{\circ} d) 15∘15^{\circ}
