Curiosity Why do motorcyclists fold in curve?

London – Everybody watch motorcycle races and enjoy them, but did you ever asked yourself why do motorcyclists fold in curve? You may think they do it just for an esthetic reason, but this is not the case.

In fact it involves physic. Do you know the Italian motorcyclist Valentino Rossi? He’s one of the best in doing so. When he was fourteen and he started his career, he was helped by some physic teachers learning more about the best way to fold in curve.

Motocyclists need to fold in curve because of the centrifugal force. But what is it? Centrifugal force acts on a body who moves in a circular path. It is pushed out of its circular motion by centrifugal force.

Shifting its center of gravity, motorcyclists can balance centrifugal force and centripetal force. But what is it? Centripetal force, like centrifugal force, acts on a body who moves in a circular path but, differently to centrifugal force, it pushed in the body of its circular motion.

This allow motorcyclists to not be catapulted out of its motion.
Physic allows motorcyclists to run right to winning!!
