Each wheel of a motorcycle is of 600 mm diameter and has moment of inertia of 1.2 kg-m2. The total mass of the motorcycle and the rider is 180 kg and combined center of mass 580 mm above the ground level when the cycle is upright. The moment of inertia of the rotating parts of the engine of heel necessary when the motor cycle takes a turn of 35m radius at speed of 54 km/h. -

$dw= 600 mm = 0.6 m –– rw= 0.6/2= 0.3 \\ Iw= 1.2 kg-m^2 \\ M= 200 kg \\ n = 580 mm= 0.58m \\ I_E= 0.2 kg-m2 \\ G= 5 = W_E/W_W \\ R= 35 m$

$V= 54 km/n= 54 \times 50/180= 15 m/sec.$
