Did you get the previous problem?

If you have questions, don't be shy to make a follow-up.
Basically, the centripetal acceleration has to offset gravity, 9.8 m/s².
Since the centripetal acceleration is given by v²/r, so we equate the two quantities to get
v²/r = 9.8
v=sqrt(9.8*r) m/s
= sqrt(9.8*13.3) m/s
= 11.4 m/s.
