Find the minimum velocity of the cylinder

Reference no: EM13249812

In a carnival they often have a large r = 16 m, cylinder which people stand against the outer wall while it rotates with some velocity v. At a certain point the floor of the cylinder lowers and the people are surprised they don't slide down. The friction between the wall and their clothes is ?s = 0.57.

Part (a) What is the minimum velocity of the cylinder to make someone "stick" to the wall in m/s?

Part (b) What is the frequency f in revolutions per minute of the carnival ride when it has reached the minimum velocity to "stick" someone to the wall?

Measured by the standard deviation : Babish's standard deviation of returns is greater than Cornell's (40% vs. 32%), but Cornell's expected return is greater than Babish's (15% vs. 12%). Therefore, Babish has more risk (as measured by the standard deviation) but a lower expected return.
