At the local carnival you and a friend decide to take a ride on theFerris wheel. As the wheel rotates with a constant angular speed,your friend poses the following questions: (a) Is my linear velocityconstant? (b) Is my linear speed constant? (c) Is the magnitude ofmy centripetal acceleration constant? (d) Is the direction of mycentripetal acceleration constant? What is your answer to each ofthese questions?
