A car is negotiating a curved road of radius R. The road is banked at angle θ. The coefficient of friction between the tyres of the car and the road is μs. The maximum safe velocity on this road is

1. gRμs+tanθ1-μstanθ

2. gRμs+tanθ1-μstanθ

3. gR2μs+tanθ1-μstanθ

4. gR2μs+tanθ1-μstanθ

A car is negotiating a curved road of radius \(R\). The road is banked at an angle \(\theta\). The coefficient of friction between the tyre of the car and the road is \(\mu_s\). The maximum safe velocity on this road is:
1. \(\sqrt{\operatorname{gR}\left(\dfrac{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}+\tan \theta}{1-\mu_{\mathrm{s}} \tan \theta}\right)}\)
2. \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{g}}{\mathrm{R}}\left(\dfrac{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}+\tan \theta}{1-\mu_{\mathrm{s}} \tan \theta}\right)}\)
3. \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{g}}{\mathrm{R}^2}\left(\dfrac{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}+\tan \theta}{1-\mu_{\operatorname{s}} \tan \theta}\right)}\)
4. \(\sqrt{\mathrm{gR}^2\left(\dfrac{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}+\tan \theta}{1-\mu_{\mathrm{s}} \tan \theta}\right)}\)
