In an amusement park ride passengers stand inside an 8 m radius cylinder. Initially the cylinder rotates with its axis oriented along the vertical. After the cylinder has acquired sufficient speed, it tilts into a vertical plane, that is, the axis tilts into the horizontal,  as shown in Figure 6.2. Suppose that, once the axis has tilted into the horizontal, the ring rotates once every . If a rider's mass is 40 kg, with how much force does the ring push on her at the top of the ride?

Figure 6.2




• 230 N

• 1,000 N

• 390 N

• 620 N
