2. A 45.0 kg boy is initially seated on the top of a hemispherical ice mound of radius 20.0 m. He begins to slide down the ice, with a negligible initial speed. Assume the ice is frictionless. a. At what height does the boy lose contact with the ice. b. What is acting as a radial force?
A carnival ride tests your courage by putting you in a situation that would appear dangerous. A person with a mass of 75.3 kg steps into a cylindrical tube that has a radius of 4.1 m. The tube begins to rotate around its center axis. As the speed of rotation increases, the passenger feels pushed against the wall of the tube. When the tube is rotating rapidly, the floor drops out. Luckily, there is a coefficient of static friction between the passenger and the wall, which keeps them from falling. If the value of that coefficient is 0.501, then what is the minimum speed that the passenger must be moving at?

A variation of the amusement park ride discussed in Problem 11 is the Gravitron, which consists of a rotating cylinder, where riders stand with their backs against the inner surface of the cylinder (see image). As the cylinder rotates faster, riders get stuck to the wall. The effect is great enough, that in some rides, the floor even drops away. Let’s model the Gravitron as a rotating cylinder with vertical walls. The radius of the cylinder is 5.5 m. At one point during the ride, the speed of the Gravitron is 24 rpm, at which point a rider slides down the wall at constant speed. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the rider and the wall?

You are in a carnival ride that consists of a circular room that spins around its center. You stand against the wall at the edge of the room. The room spins at a constant rate of one revolution every 5 seconds, and the room has a radius of 5 m. Your mass is 70 kg. After the room reaches it final speed, the floor drops out from beneath you, yet you remain stuck to the wall. What is the magnitude of the normal force exerted on you by the wall, and at what rate (power) does the normal force perform work on you? (Please explain the power that the normal force does work in detail.)
