Overflow from a Spinning Container
A cylindrical container of height H and radius a is initially half-filled with a liquid. The cylinder is then spun steadily around its vertical axis Z-Z, as shown in Fig. E1.8. At what value of the angular velocity \omega will the liquid just start to spill over the top of the container? If H=1 \mathrm{ft} and a=0.25 \mathrm{ft}, how many rpm (revolutions per minute) would be needed?
