A.
Necessary centrifugal force may be obtained from the horizontal component of the weight of the train |
B.
No frictional force may be produced between the tracks and the wheels of the train |
C.
Necessary centripetal force may be obtained from the horizontal component of the weight of the train |
D.
The train may not fall down inwards |
Answer : Option C
