Question

In an amusement park ride  passengers stand inside a cylinder, which is 8 m in diameter, Intially, the cylinder rotates with its axis oriented along the vertical  After the cylinder has acquired sufficiient speed, it tilts into a vertical plane. Once the asxis has tilted into the horizontal , the ring rotates once every 2.3 s . Right before teh axis goes from vertical to horizontal the ratio of your apparent weight measured at the bottom , nB, to the apparent weightat the top , nt , is closest ( assume that your mass is 75 kg )

need the answer with clear steps /////////

Explanation / Answer

w = 2 pi / T

= 2 pi / 2.3 s

= 2.73

F = m(r*w^2 - g)

= 75 ( 8 * 2.73^2 - 9.8)

= 3736 N
