Dare Devil Motorcyclist
I was travelling Northward in my automobile at 100 km/hr. A motorcyclist travelling at high rate of speed overtook me and immediately cut in front of me.
Assuming that the leading edge of his front tire was 1.0 m away when it was directly west of my front bumper (Assume that the length of the motorcycle was 2 m.)
What minimum speed would he require to negotiate this cutoff safely at an angle of 30 degrees?(in km/hr to nearest integer)
The answer is 231.
