3 o/1 point The coefficient of friction between a rider and the merry-go-round is 0.5053 and the rider is observed to be travelling at 13.18 Revolutions Per Minute (RPM). If friction is just enough to keep that rider in Uniform Circular motion, how many meters from the center of the merry-go-round is that person standing? (Round your answer to three decimal places. Hint: Be careful with units. Find the force of friction, and relate this to the centripetal acceleration. Use that centripetal acceleration to solve for the Radius. X (no answer)
