A motor cyclist has to rotate in horizontal circles inside the cylindrical wall of inner radius ' R ' metre. If the coefficient of friction between the wall and the tyres is ' \(\mu_{\mathrm{s}}\) ', then the minimum speed required is ( \(\mathrm{g}=\) acceleration due to gravity)

  1. A \(\sqrt{\mu_{\mathrm{s}} \mathrm{Rg}}\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{Rg}}{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}}}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{\frac{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}}{\mathrm{Rg}}}\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{R}^2 \mathrm{~g}}{\mu_{\mathrm{s}}}}\)
