Why is it easier to balance a bicycle in motion ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

A bicycle in motion is in rotational equilibrium. From principles of Dynamics of rotational bodies is that the forces that are perpendicular to the axis of rotation will try to turn the axis of rotation but necessary forces will arise it cancel these forces due to inertia of rotation and fixed position of axis is maintained. So it is easy to balance a rotating body
