Suppose that you are at an amusement park and have just won a toy animal from one of the games
at the park. You take your new toy animal with you on a ride on the Ferris wheel, which has a radius
of 5.0 m. Unfortunately, when you are at the top of the Ferris wheel, you accidentally drop the toy
animal. How far from the center of the base of the Ferris wheel does the toy animal land on the
ground? This Ferris wheel completes one revolution every 32.0 seconds, and the bottom of the wheel
is 1.75 m above the ground

A common amusement park ride is a Ferris wheel (not drawn to scale). Riders sit in chairs that are on pivots so they remain level as the wheel turns at a constant rate.A particular Ferris wheel has a radius of 24 meters, and it makes one complete revolution around its axle (at location A) in 20 seconds. In all of the following questions, consider locationA (at the center of the axle) as the location around which we will calculate the...
ONLY NEED ANSWER TO PART (A + B) Some amusement parks have a double Ferris wheel, which consists of two vertically rotating wheels that are attached to each other by a bar that also rotates. There are eight gondolas equally spaced on each wheel. Riders experience a combination of two circular motions that provide a sensation more thrilling than the classic single Ferris wheel. In particular, riders experience the greatest sensation when their rate of change in height is the...

One game at the amusement park has you push a puck up a long, frictionless ramp. You win a stuffed animal if the puck, at its highest point, comes to within 10 cm of the end of the ramp without going off. You give the puck a push, releasing it with a speed of 5.0 m/s when it is 8.7 m from the end of the ramp. The puck's speed after traveling 3.0 m is 4.0 m/s How far is...
Because of your physics background, you have been hired by an amusement park as the technical consultant for a new ride that is being developed. Patrons get into a roller coaster car that accelerates down a steep incline. On the way down, they go through an artificial “thunderstorm” that involves sprinklers. Your boss wants customers to be subjected to the “rain” for only a short amount of time (0.3 seconds). In addition, the water spraying apparatus has already been built...
