a cyclist turns a corner with a radius of 37 m at a speed of 22 m/s. What's the cyclist acceleration? If the cyclist and cycle have a combined mass of 90 kg, what is the force causing them to turn?

Respuesta :

The cyclist will be experiencing centrifugal acceleration: 
Acceleration = m×v²÷r
Where: 
m = mass
v = velocity of cyclist
r = radius of the corner

Acceleration = 90×22²÷37 = 1177.3 m/s²
