A child with a weight of 430 N rides on a Ferris wheel, which has a radius of 17 m, and the linear velocity of the 3.5 m/s at an

y point on the circle. What is the child’s “apparent weight” at the lowest point of the circular motion? (Hint: The “apparent weight” is the normal force, or the force of the seat on the child at any point.)

At the lowest point on the Ferris wheel, there are two forces acting on the child: their weight of 430 N, and an upward centripetal/normal force with magnitude n; then the net force on the child is

∑ F = ma

n - 430 N = (430 N)/g • a

where m is the child's mass and a is their centripetal acceleration. The child has a linear speed of 3.5 m/s at any point along the path of the wheel whose radius is 17 m, so the centripetal acceleration is

a = (3.5 m/s)² / (17 m) ≈ 0.72 m/s²

and so

n = 430 N + (430 N)/g (0.72 m/s²) ≈ 460 N
