It acts in the upward direction.
Rate of speed (3 m/s north is three miles per second north, so it's a rate of speed)
Answer:
v=32.9m/s
Explanation:
The acceleration needed to mantain a circular motion of radius r and speed v is given by the equation 
This is the centripetal acceleration. The person will feel what is called a centrifugal acceleration, of the same value, because he is not in an inertial frame (thus subject to fictitious forces, product of inertia).
We want to know the speed of his head when it is subject to 12.5 times the value of the acceleration of gravity while moving on a 8.84m radius circle, so we must do:
