Concept explainers

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.

Question

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?

An old amusement park ride, called The Rotor, is a large, upright rotating barrel. Riders enter and stand near the outer circular wall. Once the ride reaches full speed, the floor is retracted, leaving the riders stuck to the wall of the drum. Draw a force diagram of a person in the Rotor Ride. What is the minimum speed should a 5.0-m diameter Rotor Ride reach before dropping the floor if the coefficient of static friction is 0.70 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.60? What is the minimum required weight for this ride?
