A curve of radius 30 m is banked so that a 950 kg car travelling at
40 km/h can go round it even if the road is so icy that the coefficient of static friction is approximately zero. You are commissioned to tell the local police the range of speeds at which a car can travel around this curve without skidding. Neglect the effects of air drag and rolling friction. If the coefficient of static friction is 0.3, what is the range of speeds you tell them?
