For an unknown reason, an adventurous man with a height of 1.95m is holding an open cylindrical container 0.3m in diameter and 0.8m high partially filled with water and is rotated about its vertical axis at a speed of 240rpm. What would be the depth of water in the container if the cylindrical container is brought to rest so that no water will be spilled out? At what speed would it be rotated so that the pressure at the center of the bottom of the tank is zero?
