Statement I: A cyclist is moving on an un-banked road with a speed of 7 kmh?¹ and takes a sharp circular turn along a path of radius of 2m without reducing the speed. The static friction coefficient is 0.2 The cyclist will not slip and pass the curve. (g = 9.8m/s²)
Statement II: If the road is at an angle of 45°, cyclist can cross of the curve of 2m radius with the speed of 18.5 kmh?¹ without slipping
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct the answer from the options given below.

Correct Option - 4
Detailed Solution:Statement-I: F? = mv²/r ≤ f? = µmg ⇒ v ≤ √ (µgR) = √ (0.2×9.8×2) = 1.98 m/s
v_cyclist = 7 km/h = 1.94 m/s. Since 1.94 m/s < 1.98 m/s, statement-I is correct.
Statement-II: v_max = √gR (tanθ+µ)/ (1-µtanθ) = .
v_min = √gR (tanθ-µ)/ (1+µtanθ) = √ (9.8×2 (tan45-0.2)/ (1+0.2tan45) = 3.65 m/s
v_cyclist = 18.5 km/h = 5.14 m/s. This is outside the safe range. Statement-II is incorrect.
