GATE Civil 2021 Set 2 | Question: 55
For a $2^{\circ}$ curve on a high speed Broad Gauge $\text{(BG)}$ rail section, the maximum sanctioned speed is $\text{100 km/h}$ and the equilibrium speed is $\text{80 km/h}$. Consider dynamic gauge of $\text{BG}$ ... $\text{30.5 m}$ arc. The cant deficiency for the curve (in $\text{mm}, \textit{round off to integer}$) is ________________________

For a broad gauge railway track on a horizontal curve of radius $R$ (in m), the equilibrium cant $e$ required for a train moving at a speed of $V$ (in km per hour) is $e= 1.676 \dfrac{V^2}{R} \\$ $e= 1.315 \dfrac{V^2}{R} \\$ $e= 0.80 \dfrac{V^2}{R} \\$ $e= 0.60 \dfrac{V^2}{R}$
