$A$ cyclist on a level road takes a sharp circular turn of radius $3 \; m$ $(g = 10 \; m \cdot s^{-2})$. If the coefficient of static friction between the cycle tyres and the road is $0.2$,at which of the following speeds will the cyclist not skid while taking the turn?

  • A
    $9 \; km \cdot h^{-1}$
  • B
    $7.2 \; km \cdot h^{-1}$
  • C
    $10.8 \; km \cdot h^{-1}$
  • D
    $14.4 \; km \cdot h^{-1}$
