Answer:
The maximum speed is 18.86 m/s.
Explanation:
initial radius, r = 150 m
maximum speed, v = 26.5 m/s
new radius, r' = 76 m
Let the new maximum speed is v'.
The formula of the maximum speed is
[tex]tan\theta = \frac{v^2}{rg}[/tex]
So,
[tex]\frac{v'^2}{v^2}=\frac{r'}{r}\\\\\frac{v'^2}{26.5\times 26.5}=\frac{76}{150}\\\\v=18.86 m/s[/tex]
