As we have learned

Reaction Road on Car When bridge is convex -

F_{c}=mg\ cos\theta-R=\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

R=mg\ cos\theta-\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

R = reaction

Fc= centripetal force

mg = weight

- wherein

\theta= angle of R with centre

v = tangential velocity

 

 

R = mg \cos \theta - \frac{mv^2}{r}

R_{max} = mg - \frac{mv^2}{r}

To loose the contact R = 0 

For v_{max}, R_{max} = 0

mg - \frac{mv^2}{r } = 0

v_{max} = \sqrt {rg }
