Question:

What force is acting on the car to lift right side when i turn left and vise versa.?

I studied about gyroscopic couple, is that the force, if i want to turn my car 2500 kgs at 40 m radius by different speed, which is dangerous to tilt my car down. 1) 60 km/h. 2) 80 Km/h. 3) 100 km/h. 4) gt;120 km/h

Answer:

The centripetal force, is provided by the frictional force applied by road. This can never be more than normal reaction, mg. mv^2/r mg or v^2 gr v sq rt[gr] or v sq rt[9.81*40] or v 19.81 m/s or 0.0198*3600 km/h 71.31 km/h. So 2), 3) and 4) are dangerous speeds to have while turning
