I have been planning to buy a new car and one of the major considerations for me is the fastest way to make a U turn on a horizontal road at constant speed. Suppose to make a 180^(@) turn on a circular path. The car's steering system does not allow a radius of less than 5m. The road is wide enough to allow a circle of maximum radius of 20m. If the acceleration is greater than 5 m//s^(2), the car skids. The maximum constant speed at which I can take a U turn is :

Answer»

`5 m//s`
`(10)/(3) m//s`
`10 m//s`
`15 m//s`

SOLUTION :`(v_("max")^(2))/(r_("max"))=5`
`v_("max")=10m//s`
