Car On An Icy Off-Ramp

view from top
A car exits a freeway on a circularly-shaped ramp that is banked at an angle of q=23.5deg . The ramp
has a radius of curvature R=48.6 meters. The ramp is icy, so you can neglect the effects of friction.
If the total mass of the car and driver is m=1397 kilograms, what constant speed v must the driver
maintain in order for the center of mass of the car to stay in the center of the ramp? (answer in
k(m)/(h)
Note: Use gravity g=9.80(m)/(s)2.
answer in k(m)/(h) (kilometers per hour)
