The cyclist leans to one side while going along a curve. He leans to wards the curve or center of curvature of the curve. He avoids skidding and falling by bending. He does it in order to supply centripetal acceleration. It is necessary to make the cycle turn. If he does not bend, he will move only...

The cyclist leans to one side while going along a curve. He leans to wards the curve or center of curvature of the curve. He avoids skidding and falling by bending. He does it in order to supply centripetal acceleration. It is necessary to make the cycle turn. If he does not bend, he will move only in a straight line and go away to outside of the curved road. The resultant force of the normal force from the road and the friction force supplies the centripetal force required to turn in a curve. read less

While going in a curved path the frictional force between the Tyre and the road cannot provide enough centripetal force along the curve..But if the cyclist lean along the curve he gets extra centripetal force.... The direction of leaning is along the centre of the curve..

Force of 16N and 12N are acting on a mass of 200kg in mutually perpendicular directions. Find the magnitude of the acceleration produced.
Resultant force F= sqrt (16^2+12^2) => F=20N So F=ma => a=F/m=20/200 => a=0.1 ms-2

Sameer went on his bike from Delhi to Gurgaon at a speed of 60km/hr and came back at a speed of 40km/hr. What is his average speed for entire journey?
To find the average speed, you need to know the formula of average speed. The avg speed 0= 2 d / (t1+ t2) = 2 v1.v2/(V1 + V2). Just substitute the value.

A lift is accelerated upward. Will the apparent weight of a person inside the lift increase, decrease or remain the same relative to its real weight? If the lift is going with uniform speed, then?
Thd apparent weight of the person will increase. When in uniform speed then acceleration is zero, so no change in weight.
