A student of weight 667 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude of the normal force F_n on the student from the seat is 556 N. (a) Does the student feel "light" or "heavy" there? (b) What is the magnitude of F_n at the lowest point? If the wheel's speed is doubled, what is the magnitude F_n at the (c) highest and (d) lowest point?

QUESTION: Part A: A Ferris wheel has diameter of 5.1 m and makes one revolution in 5.9 seconds. A person weighing 696 N is sitting on one of the benches attached at the rim of the wheel. What is the apparent weight (that is, the normal force exerted on her by the bench) of the person as she passes through the highest point of her motion? Part B: Future space stations will create an artificial gravity by rotating. Consider a...
Suppose you're on a Ferris wheel at a carnival, seated 10 m from the Ferris wheel's axis. If you make a complete rotation each minute, what is your linear speed? Two 600 -kg masses are separated by a distance of 64 m. Using Newton's law of gravitation, find the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by one mass on the other. [G = 6.67 times 10^-11 N m^2/kg^2]
A 32.0 kg child takes a ride on a Ferris wheel that rotates four times each minute and has a diameter of 21.0 m. (a) What is the centripetal acceleration of the child? m/s toward the center of the path (b) What force (magnitude and direction) does the seat exert on the child at the lowest point of the ride? magnitude N direction (from upward) (c) What force does the seat exert on the child at the highest point of...
The distance from the center of a Ferris wheel to a passenger seat is 12 m. What centripetal acceleration does a passenger experience when the wheel's angular velocity is 0.50 rad/s?
A Ferris wheel is a vertical, circular amusement ride with radius 8.5 m. Riders sit on seats that swivel to remain horizontal. The Ferris wheel rotates at a constant rate, going around once in 7.3 s. Consider a rider whose mass is 73 kg. a. At the bottom of the ride, what is the vector gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the rider? b. At the top of the ride, what is the rate of change of the rider's...
