Question
Suppose we have a child of mass (m) on a Ferris Wheel moving in a vertical circle of radius 10 m at a constant speed of 3.00 m/s. Part a) Determine the force exerted on the child by the seat at the bottom of the ride. Part b) Determine the force exerted on the child by the seat at the top of the ride. Part c) Suppose an object in the Ferris Wheel mechanism causes the speed of the child to increase to 10 m/s. What does the child experience at the top of the ride? What does the child experience at the bottom? Hint: This is a uniform circular motion problem with normal forces acting on the child as well as the mg. MUST INCLUDE A FREE BODY DIAGRAM. ALL PARTS MUST BE COMPLETED AND WORK MUST BE SHOWN TO RECEIVE CREDIT
