A person is driving a vehicle at a uniform speed of $5 \, \text{m/s}$ on a level curved track of radius $5 \, \text{m}$. The coefficient of static friction between tyres and road is $0.1$. Will the person slip while taking the turn with the same speed? Take $g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2$.

Question

A person will slip if $v^2 = 5 \, \text{m}^2/\text{s}^2$

A person will slip if $v^2 > 5 \, \text{m}^2/\text{s}^2$

A person will slip if $v^2$

A person will not slip if $v^2 > 10 \, \text{m}^2/\text{s}^2$
