A bobsled travels along a frictionless track. It crosses the starting line with a speed of v0=3.1 m/s. At an elevation of 21m below the starting line, it takes a turn along a flat section of track (that is not uphill or downhill). This curve is banked and has a radius of curvature of r=14 m. How many times their normal weight will a rider feel when going around this curve?
