$A$ vehicle is moving with a velocity $v$ on a curved road of width $b$ and radius of curvature $R$. For counteracting the centrifugal force on the vehicle,the difference in elevation required between the outer and inner edges of the road is

  • A
    $v^2b / Rg$
  • B
    $vb / Rg$
  • C
    $vb^2 / Rg$
  • D
    $vb / R^2g$
