| Q. |
When moving along a curved path, he |
| A. | leans inwards |
| B. | leans outwards |
| C. | is still |
| D. | leans sideways |
| Answer» A. leans inwards | |
| Explanation: when a cyclist goes around a curved path, a centripetal force is required. the force between the tyres and the road is small to provide the necessary centripetal force. that is why a cyclist going around a curve leans inwards because the horizontal component of the normal reaction provides the necessary centripetal force. | |
