A certain amusement park ride consists of a large rotating cylinder of radius R = 3.15 m. As the cylinder spins, riders inside feel themselves pressed against the wall. If the cylinder rotates fast enough, the frictional force between the riders and the wall can be great enough to hold the riders in place as the floor drops out from under them. A person is completely inside a large, vertical cylinder. The central axis of the cylinder is marked with a dashed, vertical line. The radius of the cylinder is capital R. A curved arrow below the cylinder points to the right to indicate counterclockwise rotation of the cylinder about its central axis if viewed from above. The person inside the cylinder has their back against the right interior wall of the cylinder with their feet above the base of the cylinder. If the cylinder makes f = 0.470 rotations / s , what is the magnitude of the normal force F N between a rider and the wall, expressed in terms of the rider's weight W ?

A23 kg log of wood begins from rest, 300 m up a sluice (a water track used to transport logs, think of it as an inclined plane with negligible friction) inclined at 20° to the horizontal. after it reaches the flat waterway at the bottom it collides elastically with a 100 kg block of wood initially at rest near the base of the incline. (a) how long does it take the 23 kg log to travel down the incline? (b) what is the speed of the 23 kg log at the bottom of the incline? (c) what are the velocities of both blocks of wood after the collision? (d) what is the total kinetic energy before the collision? (e) what is the kinetic energy of the 23 kg log after the collision? (f) what is the kinetic energy of the 100 kg block of wood after the collision? (g) what is the total kinetic energy after the collision? (h) compare the total initial and total final kinetic energies. is this consistent with what you would expect for elastic collisions? explain!
