In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 3.0-m-tall, 5.0-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their backs against the wall. the cylinder begins to rotate about a vertical axis. then the floor on which the passengers are standing suddenly drops away! if all goes well, the passengers will stick to the wall and not slide. clothing has a static coefficient of friction against steel in the range 0.60 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient in the range 0.40 to 0.70.what is the minimum rotational frequency, in rpm, for which the ride is safe?

2.55 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

Diameter of ride=5 m

radius(r)=2.5 m

Static friction coefficient range=0.60-1

Here Frictional force will balance weight

And limiting  frictional force is provided by Centripetal force

weight of object=mg

Equating two

f=mg

the small 0.38-kg slider is known to move from position a to position b along the vertical-plane slot. determine (a) the work done on the body by its weight and (b) the work done on the body by the spring. the distance r = 0.70 m, the spring modulus k = 154 n/m, and the unstretched length of the spring is 0.53 m
