As we learnt in

If friction is also present in banking of road -

\frac{V^{2}}{rg}=\frac{\mu+tan\theta}{1-\mu tan \theta}

\theta= angle of banking

\mu= coefficient of friction

V = velocity

- wherein

Maximum speed on a banked frictional road

V=\sqrt{\frac{rg(\mu+tan\theta)}{1-\mu tan\theta}}

 

 

Tsin\theta=\frac{mv^{2}}{r}                                    (i)

Tcos\theta=mg                                        (ii)

tan\theta=\frac{v^{2}}{rg}=v^{2}=gr\ tan\theta

v^{2}=gr

v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{0.4\times10}=2ms^{-1}

Correct option is 4.
