The Cosmoclock 21 Ferris wheel in Yokohama City, Japan, has a diameter of 100 m. Its name comes from its 60 arms, each of which

can function as a second hand (so that it makes one revolution every 60 s).
Part A: Find the speed of the passengers when the Ferris wheel is rotating at this rate (in m/s)
Part B: A passenger weighs 834 N at the weight-guessing booth on the ground. What is his apparent weight at the highest point of the Ferris wheel? (in N)
Part C: What is his apparent weight at the lowest point on the Ferris wheel?
Part D: What would be the time for one revolution if the passeger's apparent weight at the highest point were zero? (in s)
Part E: What then would be the passenger's apparent weight at the lowest point? (in N)

Answer:

Explanation:

A ) angular velocity ω = 2π / T

= 2 x 3.14 / 60

= .10467 rad / s

linear velocity v = ω R

=  .10467 x 50

= 5.23 m / s

centripetal force = m v² / R

= mg v² / gR

= 834 x 5.23² / 9.8 x 50

= 46.55 N

B )

apparent weight

= mg - centripetal force

= 834 - 46.55

= 787.45 N

C ) apparent weight

= mg + centripetal force

= 834 + 46.55

= 880.55 N.

D )

For apparent weight to be zero

centripetal force = mg

mg = mv² / R

v² = gR

= 9.8 x 50

= 490

v = 22.13 m /s

time period of revolution

= 2π R /v

2 x 3.14 x 50 / 22.13

= 14.19 s

Suppose you want to use this human engine to lift a 2.35 kg box from the floor to a tabletop 1.30 m above the floor. How much mu
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the box, m = 2.35 kg

It is lifted from the floor to a tabletop 1.30 m above the floor, h = 1.3 m

We need to find the increase the gravitational potential energy. Initial it will placed at ground i.e. its initial gravitational potential is equal to 0. The increase in the gravitational potential energy is given by :

U=mgh

U=2.35\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1.3\ m

U = 29.93 Joules

So, the increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

In Wagner’s opera Das Rheingold, the goddess Freia is ransomed for a pile of gold just tall enough and wide enough to hide her f
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Price=$7×10⁷

Explanation:

Step 1: Estimate the volume of the pile,

Step 2: Multiply it by the density to get its mass

Step 2: Then multiply the mass by the price per gram to get the total price

So

The average pile dimensions are=45.7×45×172.7

V=3.6*10^{5}cm^{3}\\  m_{g}=V_{p}=3.6*10^{5}*19.3=7*10^{6}g\\

Price=m×$10

Price=(7×10⁶)×$10

Price=$7×10⁷

Answer:

I believe it is a transfer of energy from the rubber band to the car

Explanation:

However it could be a transfer of potential energy from the stretched rubber band that is released into kinetic energy into the car. Depends as there is little context to the question.
