At an amusement park there is a ride in which cylindrically shaped chambers spin around a central axis. People sit in seats facing the axis, their backs against the outer wall. At one instant the outer wall moves at a speed of 3.09 m/s, and an 56.8-kg person feels a 343-N force pressing against his back. What is the radius of a chamber?
m = 56.8 kg, F = 343 N
v = 3.09 m/s
F = m v2 / r
radius r = m v2 / F
= (56.8 * 3.092) / (343)
radius of a chamber = 1.58 m

There is a classic amusement park ride where people stand with their backs pressed against the side of a large cylinder that will rotate around, moving faster and faster. Eventually, the cylinder is spinning fast enough that the floor can drop away and the force from the wall on the people is large enough to hold them up (so they do not slip downward on the wall, even when the floor drops away and their feet no longer are toughing...
Constants | Periodic Table Part A In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 5.1-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 0.64 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient...
