When you try to stop or slow down the bike, or when the bike is riding slower than four kph, the fork...
Dangling your leg into this high-speed airstream results in a significant force on the rider’s leg as it acts like a small...
There are 4 forces that act on a cyclist and determine how fast the cyclist moves – propulsion, gravity, rolling resistance and...
The centrifugal force acts on the center of mass of the bike, which creates a torque that rotates the bike with the...
A bike remains upright when it is steered so that the ground reaction forces exactly balance all the other internal and external...
In short, leaning the bike allows there to be a gravitational torque to balance the torque from the fake force. Leaning prevents...
Everyone knows how a bike stays upright — the gyroscopic forces induced by the spinning wheels, and the “castor effect” created by...
Weightlessness is achieved by flying G-FORCE ONE through a parabolic flight maneuver. Specially trained pilots fly these maneuvers between approximately 24,000 and...
Dark energy is the name given to an unexplained force that is drawing galaxies away from each other, against the pull of...
Science puts that rotational speed limit for discomfort at around 3 RPM. So, to rotate at less than 3 RPM and still...
