After eating all your candy, you ride the Silly Silo, which sounds like an awful idea. The Silly Silo is a ride that used to be at Adventure Land. Watch the video at this link to see how it works. Notice that the floor drops out and everyone stays stuck to the wall. Imagine that the Silly Silo has a diameter of 5.5 m and it spins with a tangential velocity of 6.1 m/s. - What is the centripetal acceleration of a person stuck against the wall? - What is the minimum coefficient of friction that allows everyone to stick to the wall (and not slide up or down) during the ride.

Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.
