I guess the force that prevents the person from sliding would be the frictional force and the force that provides the centripetal acceleration would be the normal force of the wall pushing back on the person? Is that correct?
Hi, I just had a question about this homework question.
I am not given the mass at all in any portion of the question. Fs = Fc because the static friction is the thing that keeps the rider stuck to the wall
My answer came out to about 3.4 m/s for the minimum speed that keeps the rider stuck to...
