Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Motion in Two and Three Dimensions: Problem 59

A woman rides a carnival Ferris wheel at radius 15 m, completing five turns about its horizontal axis every minute. What are (a) the period of the motion, the (b) magnitude and (c) direction of her centripetal acceleration at the highest point, and the (d) magnitude and (e) direction of her centripetal acceleration at the lowest point?

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 15 m

Find: (a) the period of the motion; (b) magnitude and; (c) direction of her centripetal acceleration at the highest poi
