$A$ cyclist is travelling with velocity $v$ on a curved road of radius $R$. The angle $\theta$ through which the cyclist leans inwards is given by

  • A
    $\tan \theta = \frac{Rg}{v^2}$
  • B
    $\tan \theta = v^2 Rg$
  • C
    $\tan \theta = \frac{v^2 g}{R}$
  • D
    $\tan \theta = \frac{v^2}{Rg}$
