How do motorcycles in Motogp do not fall when they’re taking corners?
In: 2
Centrifugal force.
So you drive really fast, going straight. Your motorcycle wants to keep going that direction. All of its mass is going thataway, and there’s a lot of energy there trying to keep it going thataway.
Then you turn. You lean the bike over, and you place the wheels between you and the direction you were going before. Your bike still wants to go the way it was going before. But now your wheels are in the way, pressing into the ground. The energy that wants to keep going that direction is now getting shoved into the ground. That force is stronger than the gravity that would normally cause your bike to fall over, at least until you’ve changed directions and all the energy is gone.
bike go fast wheels want to be upright but that’s only going straight
so you lean the bike by steering it opposite of the direction you want to go
back tire wanna go in front tire wanna go out you wanna go middle
now as soon as it leans it circles the track and that causes the tire to be pushed in
and you up and out same as running a tight track
