40.
For a circular curve of radius 200 m, the coefficient of lateral friction of 0.15 and the design speed is 40 kmph. The equilibrium superelevation (for equal pressure on inner and outer wheel) would be

e+f = V2/127R.
For equilibrium superelevation f=0;
= 40 * 40/127 * 200,
= 0.0629 = 6.3%.
For equilibrium superelevation f=0;
= 40 * 40/127 * 200,
= 0.0629 = 6.3%.

@Priyanka
40/3.6=11.1111^2=123.4.
To convert the unit 1MPS-3.6 kmph.
40/3.6=11.1111^2=123.4.
To convert the unit 1MPS-3.6 kmph.

e = V2/127R.
= 40 * 40/127 * 200 = 0.0629 = 6.3%.
= 40 * 40/127 * 200 = 0.0629 = 6.3%.

e = v^2/gr.
= (40/3.6)^2/(9.81 x 200),
= 0.0629x100,
= 6.30.
= (40/3.6)^2/(9.81 x 200),
= 0.0629x100,
= 6.30.

The answer should be 3.55% as e= V^2/255R.

@Onkar Jadhav.
How 123.43 comes?

Its e=v^2/gr
=123.43/(9.81 x 200)
=0.0629 x 100
=6.29
=123.43/(9.81 x 200)
=0.0629 x 100
=6.29

v2/gR.

No, the answer is D and m/s should come instead of kmph.

Equilibrium super elevation means f=0 then using, e=(V^2)/(127*R).
e=0.06299*100=6.3%.
e=0.06299*100=6.3%.
