You are working during your summer break as an amusement park ride operator. The ride you are controlling consists of a large vertical cylinder that spins about its axis fast enough that any person inside is held up against the wall when the floor drops away (Fig. P6.7). The coefficient of static friction between a person of mass m and the wall is μs, and the radius of the cylinder is R. You are rotating the ride with an angular speed ω suggested by your supervisor. (a) Suppose a very heavy person enters the ride. Do you need to increase the angular speed so that this person will not slide down the wall? (b) Suppose someone enters the ride wearing a very slippery satin workout outfit. In this case, do you need to increase the angular speed so that this person will not slide down the wall?

This is a poster that I have designed talking about what makes agood theme park ride a good one in terms of physics. Please reviewEvery section of it and proofread it and tell what are the thingsmy poster is lacking either visually or in text to make it Astandard. Please take this seriously as this very importantpresentation for me. Thank you and I highly appreciate your help!

In one amusement park ride, riders enter a large vertical barrel and stand against the wall on its horizontal floor. The barrel is spun up and the floor drops away. Riders feel as if they are pinned to the wall by a force something like the gravitational force. This is a fictitious force sensed and used by the riders to explain events in the rotating frame of reference of the barrel. Explain in an inertial frame of reference (Earth is nearly one) what pins the riders to the wall and identify all of the real forces acting on them.
