a 70 kg man leans against a hollow cylindrical wall with radius 3m.coefficient of friction between clothing and wall is 0.15.find minimum speed of rotation of cylinder so that the man doesnt fall when the floor is removed?
3 Answers
Taking the man to be the system,
Normal force supplies the necessary centripetal force.
therefore, N=mv2/R
Also, to ensure that the person does not fall, frictional force should be equal to the person''s weight.
therefore, F= mg
=> µs.N=mg
from (1)
µs.mv2/R=mg
µs(Rω)2/R=g {v=Rω}
(0.15)(3)(ω)2 =10
ω2= 10/0.45= 22.22
ω = 4.71 rad/sec2
Hope it helps. Do approve if satisfied by the answer!
All the best!

Three identical balls are placed on a frictionless
horizontal surface touching each other. They stick to
each other because of adhesive. Another ball of same
radius and mass m is placed over the void created by
the three balls. Find the forces applied by the balls
kept on the floor to each other if the system remains
in equilibrium.

A car loaded with water having total mass 1000 kg moves on a straight horizontal Road starting from rest under the action of a force of 100 Newton. The water spills throw a small hole in the bottom at a rate of 0.1 KG per second the velocity of cart after 300 seconds is nearly.
