At a carnival, a daredevil rides a motorcycle around and around the "wall of death," a wooden cylinder with vertical walls. The radius of the cylinder is R = 5.0m, and the coefficient of static friction between the motorcycle's tires and the walls is μ = 0.90. a) Draw a force diagram for the motorcycle. b) What is the minimum speed at which the motorcycle can ride in a horizontal circle without sliding down to the bottom?

Question
Q1(A)
At a carnival, a daredevil rides a motorcycle around and around the "wall of death," a
wooden cylinder with vertical walls. The radius of the cylinder is R = 5.0m, and the
coefficient of static friction between the motorcycle's tires and the walls is us = 0.90.
a) Draw a force diagram for the motorcycle.
b) What is the minimum speed at which the motorcycle can ride in a horizontal circle
without sliding down to the bottom?
Q1(B)
An elevator and its load have a combined mass of 1100kg, and is suspended from
a strong metal cable. The elevator is initially moving upward at 7.00m/s; it slows to
a stop with a constant acceleration in a distance of 20.0m. What is the tension T in
the elevator cable during this process?
