What is the radius of a chamber

Reference no: EM13543181

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 3.54 m/s, and an 69.5-kg person feels a 330-N force pressing against his back. What is the radius of a chamber?
