In one amusement park ride, riders enter a large vertical barrel and stand against the wall on its horizontal floor. The barrel is spun up and the floor drops away. Riders feel as if they are pinned to the wall by a force something like the gravitational force. This is a fictitious force sensed and used by the riders to explain events in the rotating frame of reference of the barrel. Explain in an inertial frame of reference (Earth is nearly one) what pins the riders to the wall, and identify all of the real forces acting on them.

Three moles of an ideal gas undergo a reversible isothermal compression at 20.0° C. During this compression,
1900 J of work is done on the gas.

5.97 Block A, with weight
3w, slides down an inclined plane
S of slope angle 36.9° at a constant
speed while plank B, with weight
w, rests on top of A. The plank
is attached by a cord to the wall
(Fig. P5.97). (a) Draw a diagram
of all the forces acting on block
A. (b) If the coefficient of kinetic
friction is the same between A and
B and between S and A, determine
its value.
