Question 1041952: The figure shows that a bicyclist tips the cycle when making a turn. The angle B, formed by the vertical direction and the bicycle, is called the banking angle. The banking angle varies inversely as the cycle's turning radius. When the turning radius is
6
feet, the banking angle is
39degrees°.
What is the banking angle when the turning radius is
6.5
feet? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
