About physics rotation


Primarygun

Recommended Posts

Consider a man riding a bicycle on a horizontal road around a circle.

The situation is as simple as one imagine.

If we need to find the angle which the inclined bicycle makes with the horizontal ground, we consider the torque.

But why can't we take the point of contact of the bicycle and the ground into account?

Error yields showing that there's always a net torque by the weight to rotate the bicycle.

Anyone helps? please
