What is the minimum angular velocity


The coefficient of static friction between the person and the wall is 0.69 . The radius of the cylinder is 6.97 m.

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 .

An 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 when the floor drops away.
