Bending of cyclist |
| Answer» In order to take a safe turn, the cyclist has to bend a little from his vertical position. In this case, a component of the reaction provides the required centripetal force.If q is angle made by the cyclist with the vertical thenIn actual practice, the value of q is slightly less because the force of friction also contributes towards the centripetal force. | |
