Ferris wheel Beach Boardwalk is going to install a new Ferris wheel with a radius of 32.5ft. Assume the pods do not swing and are always level with the ground. (a) When the Ferris wheel is spinning at its full speed, what is your apparent weight at the bottom of the circle, point (a)? (b) What is your apparent weight at point (b) of the circle? (e) What is your apparent weight at the top of the circle, point (c)? (d) How fast does the wheel have to spin (angular speed) so that you feel weight- less at the top of the Circle? ('3) (e) At point (b), what provides the cen- tripetal force acting on your body? (f) After you get. on the ride, the wheel starts turning immediately. Exactly 3.3 minutes later your friend takes a picture of the Ferris wheel and wants to know where you were at that moment. What is your 3: and y coordinate with respect to your entry point (a)? The wheel's an- gular speed is w = 4rpm, where rpm is short for revolutions per minute
