7. A popular amusement park ride use uses rotational motion to keep riders 'glued' to the wall after the floor of the ride is removed. Note there are no restraints or actual glue involved, only the power of static friction. a. If the ride rotates at a rate of 12 m/s and the cylinder has a radius of 5m, what coefficient of static friction is needed for a 60 kg rider to stay in place? b. If the size of the ride were doubled, how much faster would the ride need to spin in order to keep the riders safely inside? c. Consider a rider that weighs 100 kg. Would their extra weight present an issue with staying safely inside the ride? Figure for Problem #7 Vrot
