Explain the reason behind the bending of cyclist on a horizontal road while taking a turn.
Important Questions on Circular Motion
Statement I: A cyclist is moving on an unbanked road with a speed of and takes a sharp circular turn along a path of the radius of without reducing the speed. The static friction coefficient is . The cyclist will not slip and pass the curve
Statement II : If the road is banked at an angle of , cyclist can cross the curve of radius with the speed of without slipping. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
A modern grand-prix racing car of mass is travelling on a flat track in a circular arc of radius with a speed If the coefficient of static friction between the tyres and the track is then the magnitude of negative lift acting downwards on the car is:
STATEMENT-2 : For a particle moving in a circle, component of its acceleration towards centre, that is, centripetal acceleration should exist (except when speed is zero instantaneously).
Represent the union of two sets by Venn diagram for each of the following.

A cyclist rides along the circumference of a circular horizontal plane of radius , the friction coefficient being dependent only on distance from the centre of the plane as , where is a constant. What is the cyclist's maximum velocity with the centre at the point along which the cyclist can ride?
A railway carriage has its centre of gravity at a height of above the rails, which are apart. The maximum safe speed at which it could travel round an unbanked curve of radius is
