    A cyclist riding at a speed of 9.8 m/s takes a turn around a circular road of radius 19.6 m. What is his inclination to the vertical?

    A) \[30{}^\circ \]                                   

    B) \[45{}^\circ \]

    C) \[10.5{}^\circ \]

    D) \[26.5{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Angle of incline \[\tan \theta =\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{rg}\] where v is velocity, r the radius of circular path and g the acceleration due to gravity. Given, \[v=9.8\text{ }m/s,\text{ }r=19.6\text{ }m,\] \[g=9.8\text{ }m/{{s}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[\tan \theta =\frac{9.8\times 9.8}{19.6\times 9.8}=\frac{1}{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\theta ={{26.5}^{o}}\]
