The WindSeeker ride at Canada's Wonderland lifts riders up to 300 feet into the air while spinning them around in a 15.4 m radius circle. The WindSeeker starts its circular motion from rest with a constant angular acceleration of 0.0174 rad/s2. It maintains that angular acceleration for 46.8 s, after which the angular speed remains constant for the rest of the ride - another 131 s. During the entire time on the WindSeeker, what angle does the rider pass through?
