A velodrome is built for use in the Olympics. The radius of curvature of the surface is 20 m. At what angle should the surface be banked for cyclists moving at 18m/s? (choose an angle so that no frictional force is needed to keep the cyclists in their circular path. Large banking angles are used in velodromes.)
