An attraction in an amusement park has guests stand inside the wall of a 16m diameter cylinder that will spin, after it reaches a certain velocity the floor is lowered and the guests are stuck to the cylinder's wall. What is the minimum velocity that the cylinder must reach for this to happen if the coefficient of static friction is 0.30?

A ride at a carnival has four spokes to which pods are attached that can hold two people. The spokes are each 15 m long and are attached to a central axis. Each spoke has mass 200.0 kg, and the pods each have mass 100.0 kg. If the ride spins at 0.2 rev/s with each pod containing two 50.0-kg children, what is the new spin rate if all the children jump off the ride?
The centrifuge at NASA Ames Research Center has a radius of 8.8 m and can produce farces on its payload of 20 gs or 20 times the force of gravity on Earth. (a) What is the angular momentum of a 20-kg payload that experiences 10 gs in the centrifuge? (b) If the driver motor was turned off in (a) and the payload lost 10 kg, what would be its new spin rate, taking into account there are no frictional forces present?

Example 7: The rotor of a jet airplane engine which is supported by two bearings is shown in figure 2. The rotor assembly including compressor, turbine, and shaft has a mass of 1000 kg and a radius of gyration of 250 mm. Determine the maximum bearing force as the airplane undergoes Jiy a pull-out u on circular curve whose radius is 2,000 m at a constant speed of 1,000 km/ hr and the engine rotor speed is 10,000 rpm CW as seen from bearing 1. Include the gyroscopic, centrifugal as well as the weight effects. Assume the engine have a mass center at the middle of the assembly and it is 0.1 m above the airplane base.
