The answer is he weighs 187.39 LBS/Pounds
The solution for this problem is:
If they feel 50% of their weight that means that the
centripetal force is also 50% of their weight 1g - 0.5g = 0.5g
Then 0.5* 9.8m/s² * 18m = 88.2 would be v²
Then get the square root, the answer would be:
and v = 9.391 m/s is the answer.
Explanation :
Static friction is the frictional force between two objects that are at rest. While sliding friction is the frictional force between two objects in contact and are sliding w.r.t each other.
Static friction is usually greater than sliding friction because in static friction the contact forces is more and the interlocking between objects is tight as compared to sliding friction.
Yes because of the smoke you are creating in the air
