Answer: D = 16m

Explanation: given values: a = 2 m/s2, v = 4 m/s
In this case we have to determine the diameter of the Ferris wheel.
Diameter of circle is given as: D = 2.r.
First we have to find radius of wheel. The best way to find that is using the centripetal acceleration equation: a = v2/r
Plug in values in above equation to find radius: 2 m/s2 = (4 m/s)2/r 2 m/s2 = (16 m2/s2)/r r = (16 m2/s2)/2 m/s2
r = 8.0m
Diameter of Ferris wheel is:
D = 2.r.
D = 2.8m
D = 16m

Hey! So referring to the data the thing we can clearly see is that in a vacuum, everything, regardless of its mass, falls at the same speed.

Acceleration is often confused with speed, or velocity, but the difference is, acceleration by definition is the rate of which an object falls with respect to its mass and time.

Every single thing in the world falls at the same acceleration, this is because of gravity. The difference is the speed of which it falls. In space, there is not any gravity, and so, the objects are able to fall at the same speed regardless of their mass.
