A woman rides a carnival Ferris wheel at radius 20 m, completing 6.0 turns about its horizontal axis every minute. What are (a)

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

radius of ferris wheel is 20 m

It completes 6 turns in 1 min

i.e. 1 turn in 10 sec

Therefore its angular velocity is \omega =\frac{2\pi }{10} rad/s

(a)Period of motion is 10 s

Magnitude of centripetal acceleration is \omega ^2r

=\left ( \frac{\pi }{5}\right )^2\times 20=7.89 m/s^2

(b)Highest point will be 40 m

(c) lowest point 0 m i.e. at ground

All of the following would be questions that could be scientifically investigated except:

Answer:

"What is the best advice a parent can give a child?"

Explanation:

The other answers have one clear response. Ex: Orange popsicles melt faster than grape popsicles. That would be a fact.

But parental advice can vary, depending on your opinion. I may say that all parents must teach their children not to talk to strangers, while someone else may say that parents should advice their kids to treat everyone fairly. Nothing can be proven as the only appropriate response.

Hope this helps!

1. If Randy races his F-150 down Highway 1 for 2560 meters in 60 seconds, what is his average speed?
Nimfa-mama [501]

The average speed is 42.7 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of an object in uniform motion (=moving at constant speed) is given by the equation:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

v is the speed

d is the distance

t is the time

For the car in this problem, we have:

d = 2560 m (distance)

t = 60 s (time)

Solving the equation, we find the average speed:

v=\frac{2560}{60}=42.7 m/s
