The cylinder begins to rotate about a vertical axis. Then the floor on which the passengers are standing drops away! If all goes well, the passengers will "stick" to the wall and not slide. Clothing has a coefficient of static coefficient of friction against steel in the range of 0.690 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient in the range 0.480 to 0.70. A sign next to the entrance says "No children under 30 kg allowed." What is the minimum angular speed in rpm (do not enter units) for which the ride is safe?

- A toy submarine of mass m = 0.730 kg moves around a submerged circular track of radius R = 1.77 m. The submarine's engine provides a constant propulsion force of F = 4.88 N. When the sub is in motion, it is subject to a viscous drag force exerted by the water. This force is proportional to the sub's speed; the proportionality factor is C = 1.26 kg/s. Assuming it starts from rest at t = 0.s, the speed v (t) of the submarine at a later timet is given by v (1) = (1 – e-Ctim) where e is the base of the natural logarithm. How much time has passed when the submarine's speed reaches 62% of its terminal value? t = What is the magnitude of the submarine's acceleration a at m/s2 this time? a = 16000arrow_forwardA high-speed railway car goes around a flat, horizontal circle of radius 450 m at a constant speed.
