Answer:
The speed of the riders on the Singapore Flyer is approximately 0.262 m/s
Explanation:
The dimensions of the tallest Ferris wheel in the world are;
The diameter of the Ferris wheel, D = 150 m
The tine it takes the Ferris wheel to make a full circle, T = 30 minutes = 30 min × 60 s/min = 1,800 seconds
The angular velocity of the Ferris wheel, ω = 2·π/T
The linear velocity of the Ferris wheel, v = r·ω = The speed of the riders
Where;
r = The radius of the Ferris wheel = D/2
D = 150 m
∴ r = 150 m/2 = 75 m
∴ v = r·2·π/T
∴ v = 75 m × 2 × π/(1,800 s) ≈ 0.262 m/s
The speed of the riders on the Singapore Flyer, v ≈ 0.262 m/s
Weight and mass are used synonymously on earth because the value of g is constant on the earth because the weight of a body is the amount of force exerted by the Earths gravity on an object of finite mass. And, the mass of an object gives the amount of matter in the body and is measured in kilograms.
