The entire park area is considered to be a semi-arid desert, but distinct habitats are located at different elevations along the 8,000-foot elevation gradient. Near the Colorado River, riparian vegetation and sandy beaches prevail.
Answer:

Explanation:
The acceleration of a circular motion is given by

where
is the angular velocity and
is the radius.
Angular velocity is related to the period, T, by

Substitute into the previous formula.


This acceleration does not depend on the linear or angular displacement. Hence, the amount of rotation does not change it.
Question 2 is because the passengers have inertia, which is a tendency to resist change in motion
