Calculate the magnitude of your acceleration

Reference no: EM13663296

While at a country fair, you decide to ride the Ferris wheel. Having eaten too many candy apples and elephant ears, you find the motion somewhat unpleasant. To take your mind off your stomach, you wonder about the motion of the ride. You calculate the radius of the big wheel to be 16 meter, and you use your watch to compute that each loop around takes 28 second.

Calculate your speed?

m/s

Calculate the magnitude of your acceleration?

m/s2

Obtain the ratio of your apparent weight to your true weight at the top of the ride?
