The qualitative velocity change method for circular motion, Qualitative dynamics of circular motion, and Radial acceleration and period

Mountain biker While mountain biking, you first move at constant speed along the bottom of a trail’s circular dip and then at constant speed across the top of a circular hump. Assume that you and the bike are a system. Determine the direction of the acceleration at each position and construct a force diagram for each position (consistent with the direction of the acceleration). Compare at each position the magnitude of the force of the surface on the bike with the force Earth exerts on the system.
