Complete Question
A Ferris wheel on a California pier is 27 m high and rotates once every 32 seconds in the counterclockwise direction. When the wheel starts turning, you are at the very top.
What is your angular position 75 seconds after the wheel starts turning, measured counterclockwise from the top? Express your answer as an angle between 0∘ and 360∘. Express your answer in degrees.
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Height
Period
Time
Generally the equation for angular velocity is mathematically given by
Therefore
Therefore
Answer:
v=32.9m/s
Explanation:
The acceleration needed to mantain a circular motion of radius r and speed v is given by the equation
This is the centripetal acceleration. The person will feel what is called a centrifugal acceleration, of the same value, because he is not in an inertial frame (thus subject to fictitious forces, product of inertia).
We want to know the speed of his head when it is subject to 12.5 times the value of the acceleration of gravity while moving on a 8.84m radius circle, so we must do:
