Question

While negotiating a circular level road a cyclist has to bend by an angle θ from vertical to stay in an equilibrium is-

(a) tan θ = \(\frac{rg}{r^2}\)

(b) θ = tan^-1 (\(\frac{v^2}{rg}\))

(c) θ = sin^-1 (\(\frac{rg}{r^2}\))

(d) zero

Answer 1

Correct answer is  (b) θ = tan^-1 (\(\frac{v^2}{rg}\))
