Problem 4An amusement park ride consists of a large vertical cylinder that spins about its axis fast enough that any person inside is held up against the wall evenwhen the floor is removed.The coefficient of static friction between the person and the wall is us = 0.3 and the radius of the drum is R = 2m.(a) Find wmin, the minimum angular speed at which the drum should rotate such that the person is held up even if the floor is removed. (hint: when thefloor is removed, the person is held up by the static frictional force).(b) Find the linear speed of the person when the drum is rotating at the minimum angular speed you found in (a)(cC) Suppose that the drum started from rest and reached the speed you found in (a) in 120 seconds. During this time the drum had constant angularacceleration. Find the number of rotations made by the person within this time.

Given: To find the minimum angular speed, linear speed and number of rotations as,

Three children are riding on the edge of a merry-go-round that has a mass of 105 kg and a radius of 1.50 m. The merry-go-round is spinning at 18.0 rpm. The children have masses of 22.0, 28.0, and 33.0 kg. If the 28.0 kg child moves to the center of the merry-go-round, what is the new angular velocity in revolutions per minute? Ignore friction, and assume that the merry-go-round can be treated as a solid disk and the children as point masses.

Express your answer in m, to at least one digit after the decimal point. plz help use g = 9.8
Vlad needs to draw water from a deep well. He is using a bucket that is connected by rope (negligible mass) to a wooden axle at the top of the well. By cranking a handle at the end of the axle, Vlad is able to unwind the rope around the axle and move the bucket downward. The radius of the axle is R = 30 cm. The bucket is traveling downward at speed vi = 25 cm/s when the handle slips out of Vlad’s hand. As the rope unwinds and the bucket falls downward, the axle spins freely with an angular acceleration whose magnitude is α = 4.5 rad/s^2. The bucket falls through a distance of d = 7.0 m before crashing into the water. 1. What is the angular speed ωf of the axle when the bucket first hits the water? 2. As d → 0, what limit does ωf approach and why?
In order to move the rectangular stones which built the pyramids the ancient Egyptians used a system of cylindrical logs placed close to each other on the ground which rolled along (without slipping) as the stone on top was pulled by slaves (it also did not slip). If the radii of the logs were all 19 cm and their maximum angular velocity about their axis was 7 radians per second, what was the maximum linear speed (in m/s) of the pyramid stones

On a carnival ride, you stand next to a wall of a circular drum which spins around the center. When drum is spinning fast enough the floor drops away and you remain stuck to the wall and do not slide down to the floor until the drum slows down some. Assume a rider has a mass of 55.0 kg, and the drum has a radius of 6.00 m. The average linear speed that a rider is traveling with around the drum is 7.80 m/s. What is the normal force that the drum is exerting on the rider to keep her from sliding down to the floor?
