  1. Question 1

    Q1. A cyclist is moving in a circular path with a speed of 15 m/s. If the radius is 30 m, find the angle of banking.

    • A) 37.5°
    • B) 40°
    • C) 45°
    • D) 50°

    Answer: 37.5°

    Explanation: The angle of banking is given by tan(θ) = v² / (r * g) = 225 / (30 * 10) = 0.75. So, θ = arctan(0.75) = 37.5° (approx.).
