$A$ circular path of radius $75 \ m$ is banked at an angle of $\tan^{-1}(0.2)$. If the coefficient of static friction between the tyres of the car and the circular path is $0.1$, then the maximum permissible speed of the car to avoid slipping is (in $m/s$)

$A$ car is moving on a circular level road of curvature $300\,m.$ If the coefficient of friction is $0.3$ and acceleration due to gravity is $10\,m/s^2,$ the maximum speed the car can have is ........ $km/hr.$

$A$ body of mass $M \text{ kg}$ is at the top point of a smooth hemisphere of radius $5 \text{ m}$. It is released to slide down the surface of the hemisphere. It leaves the surface when its velocity is $5 \text{ m/s}$. At this instant, the angle made by the radius vector of the body with the vertical is (Acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$) (in $^{\circ}$)

If a cyclist moving with a speed of $4.9 \, m/s$ on a level road can take a sharp circular turn of radius $4 \, m$,then the coefficient of friction between the cycle tyres and the road is:
