tower is 15.0m. Find the time at which the arrow hits the
pear, the distance the pear has fallen, and the height of the
arrow above its release point. Answers: 0.54s, 1.4m, 4.6m.

EXAMPLE 3.9 A high-speed carnival ride
In this example the motion is in a vertical circle. Passengers in a
carnival ride travel in a circle with radius 5.0 m (Figure 3.24). The
ride moves at a constant speed and makes one complete circle in a
time T = 4.0 s. What is the acceleration of the passengers?
SOLUTION
SET UP Figure 3.25 shows our diagram.

REFLECT As in Example 3.8, the direction of a is toward the center of
the circle. The magnitude of a is greater than g, the acceleration due to
gravity, so this is not a ride for the faint-hearted. (But some roller coast-
ers subject their passengers to accelerations as great as 4g.)
Practice Problem: If the ride increases in speed so that T = 2.0 s,
what is arad? (This question can be answered by using proportional rea-
soning, without much arithmetic.) Answer: 49 m/s².
