An engineer wants to design an oval racetrack such that 3.20×103 Ib racecars can round the exactly 1000ft radius turns at 105mi/h without the aid of friction. She estimates that the cars will round the turns at a maximum of 175mi/h. Find the banking angle θ necessary for the race cars to navigate the turns at 105mi/h without the aid of friction. θ= This banking and radius are very close to the actual turn data at Daytona International Speedway, where 3.20×103 lb stock cars travel around the turns at about 175mi/h. What additional radial force is necessary to prevent a race car from drifting on the curve at 175mi/h ?
