The correct angle of banking can be found using the formula $	an	heta=v^2/rg$, where $v$ is the speed of the car, $r$ is the radius of the curve, $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity, and $	heta$ is the angle of banking. Plugging in the given values, we get $	an	heta=11.6^2/(52	imes9.8)$, which gives us $	heta=14.8°$. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
