Effective Weight of Car due to Banking Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Effective Weight = (Mass of Vehicle*Cornering Velocity^2)/(Corner Radius*[g])*(sin(Bank Angle)+cos(Bank Angle))
W_e = (m*V^2)/(R*[g])*(sin(Φ)+cos(Φ))
This formula uses 1 Constants, 2 Functions, 5 Variables

Constants Used

[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665

Functions Used

sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)
cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)

Variables Used

Effective Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Effective Weight is defined as the effective weight of the car due to banking.
Mass of Vehicle - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of Vehicle is the total mass of the vehicle.
Cornering Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Cornering Velocity is the velocity of the vehicle during cornering.
Corner Radius - (Measured in Meter) - Corner Radius is the radius of the cornering circle.
Bank Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Bank Angle is the angle between the lift vector and the vertical during a level turn of the aircraft.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mass of Vehicle: 155 Kilogram --> 155 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Cornering Velocity: 16 Meter per Second --> 16 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Corner Radius: 160 Meter --> 160 Meter No Conversion Required
Bank Angle: 0.05 Radian --> 0.05 Radian No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_e = (m*V^2)/(R*[g])*(sin(Φ)+cos(Φ)) --> (155*16^2)/(160*[g])*(sin(0.05)+cos(0.05))

Evaluating ... ...

W_e = 26.5212787809374

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

26.5212787809374 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

26.5212787809374 ≈ 26.52128 Kilogram <-- Effective Weight

What are the factors affecting the angle of banking?

The angle of banking depends on the speed of the vehicle, the radius of the curved road and the acceleration due to gravity at that place. The angle of banking is independent of mass of the vehicle. Thus the angle of banking is the same for heavy and light vehicles. The angle of banking depends on the radius of the curved road. The angle of banking is inversely proportional to the radius of curvature. For the given radius of the curve, the angle of banking increases with the speed. For the given radius of the curve and speed of the vehicle angle of banking is inversely proportional to the acceleration due to gravity at that place. The acceleration due to gravity is more on the pole than that at the equator. Thus for the given radius of the curve and speed of the vehicle angle of banking is less at the pole than that at the equator.
