  1. Question 1

    Q1. A cyclist is moving on a circular track with a radius of 80 m at a speed of 12 m/s. What is the angle of banking required?

    • A) tan^-1(0.18)
    • B) tan^-1(0.22)
    • C) tan^-1(0.15)
    • D) tan^-1(0.25)

    Answer: tan^-1(0.18)

    Explanation: The angle of banking is given by θ = tan^-1(v² / (r * g)) = tan^-1(144 / (80 * 10)) = tan^-1(0.18).
