Question

Transcribed Image Text:A student of weight 667 N rides a steadily
45 SSM ILW
rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest
point, the magnitude of the normal force Fy on the student from
the seat is 556 N. (a) Does the student feel "light" or "heavy"
there? (b) What is the magnitude of Fy at the lowest point? If the
wheel's speed is doubled, what is the magnitude Fy at the (c) high-
est and (d) lowest point?

- Write Newton's laws for a static system (1) EF, = mg sin 0 – µ̟n = 0 in component form. The gravity force has two components. (2) EF, = n - mg cos 0 = 0 Rearrange Equation (2) to get an n = mg cos e expression for the normal force n. Substitute the expression for n into EF, = mg sin 0 – µ̟mgcos 0 = 0 → tan 0 =µ, Equation (1) and solve for tan 0. Apply the inverse tangent function to tan 0 = 0.350 → 0 = tan 1 (0.350) = 19.3° get the answer.
