Question
VP5.22.2 A competition cyclist rides at a constant 12.5 m/s around a
curve that is banked at 40.0°. The cyclist and her bicycle have a com-
bined mass of 64.0 kg. (a) What must be the radius of her turn if there is
to be no friction force pushing her either up or down the banked curve?
(b) What is the magnitude of her acceleration? (c) What is the magni-
tude of the normal force that the surface of the banked curve exerts on
the bicycle?

Step 1

Given Data:

The uniform velocity of the cycle, v=12.5 m/s

The total mass of bicycle and cyclist, m=64 kg

The angle of banking, θ=40°

 

The figure below represents the free body diagram of the bicycle.
