50 kg student is riding on the Orleans Orbit at Great America. The riders are seated in cars which are then whirled in a vertical circle at constant speed. The riders are upside-down at the top of the ride. The radius of the ride is 8.0 m and it takes 5 seconds to complete one revolution. Please help with all these questions. (a) What is the force of contact (normal force) between the student and the seat when the student is at the bottom of the ride? (b) What is the force of contact (normal force) between the student and the seat when the student is at the top of the ride?
