Answer:
a
b
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The diameter of the Ferris wheel is
The period of the Ferris wheel is
The mass of the passenger is
The apparent weight of the passenger at the lowest point is mathematically represented as
Where is the centripetal force on the passenger, which is mathematically represented as
Where is the angular velocity which is mathematically represented as
substituting values
and r is the radius which is evaluated as
substituting values
So
W is the weight which is mathematically represented as
So
The apparent weight of the passenger at the highest point is mathematically represented as
substituting values
The work done on the sail is 600 J
Explanation:
The work done to lift the sail is equal to the gain in gravitational potential energy of the sail, therefore is:
where
m is the mass of the sail
g is the acceleration of gravity
(mg) is the weight of the sail
is the change in height of the sail
In this problem we have
mg = 150 N (weight)
Substituting, we find the work done:
