Question
A bicyclist with mass (72.0+C) kg wants to make a turn with a radius of (27.5) m on a horizontal surface. If she is riding at a speed of (14.45) m/s, at what angle from the vertical will she need to lean to make the desired turn? Give your answer in degrees and with 3 significant figures.
Answers
Hmmm. different names, same IP address. I get suspicious when a student changes names on same subject posts, it sounds like a test.
gravity will give a moment turning away from the turn by mg*heighttoCG*sinTheta
the centripetal force will give a moment inward to the turn of
m*v^2/radius*heighttoCG*sin90
set them equal, and solve for Theta.
