4.4x √(R-70)=4.4 √(970-70).

4.35 * 30.04.
30.04 = under root Rad-67.

@Shubam.

It's D. If there are non-transitional curves.

Mohit said:   6 years ago
Yes, right @Shubham.

Shubham said:   6 years ago
No, it should be D because speed is 132 which is greater than 100 is 4.58 square root of r equals 142 is the answer.

Safe Speed B.G. & M.G = 4.4*Under root (R-70).

= 4.4*Under root (970-70).

= 132 Km/Hr.
