Physics : Minimum Coefficient of Static Friction Problem?

In a "Rotor-ride" at a carnival, people pay money to be rotated in a vertical cylindrically walled "room." If the room radius is 4.2 m, and the rotation frequency is 0.7 revolutions per second when the floor drops out, what is the minimum coefficient of static friction so that the people will not slip down?


Confused as can be! Help me, please! Looking for a simple explanation and a numerical answer, thanks!!
