### Homework Problem: Relative Velocity and Acceleration in Rotating Frames

**Problem Statement:**

The car \(A\) has a forward speed of 21 km/h and is accelerating at \( 3.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). Determine the velocity and acceleration of the car relative to observer \( B \), who rides in a nonrotating chair on the Ferris wheel. The angular rate \( \Omega = 3.2 \, \text{rev/min} \) of the Ferris wheel is constant.

**Given Data:**
- Forward speed of car \( A \): \( 21 \, \text{km/h} \)
- Acceleration of car \( A \): \( 3.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \)
- Radius of the Ferris wheel: \( R = 8.4 \, \text{m} \)
- Angular rate of the Ferris wheel: \( \Omega = 3.2 \, \text{rev/min} \)

**Diagram:**

The provided diagram depicts:
- A Ferris wheel with a radius \( R = 8.4 \) m.
- The Ferris wheel has a marked angular rate \( \Omega = 3.2 \, \text{rev/min} \).
- Observer \( B \) is seated on a nonrotating chair on the Ferris wheel.
- The car \( A \) is moving forward with the given speed and acceleration.

**Answers:**

To find:
1. The velocity of car \( A \) relative to observer \( B \):
\[ \vec{v}_{A/B} = ( \quad i \quad \text{m/s} ) \, \vec{i} + ( \quad j \quad \text{m/s} ) \, \vec{j} \]

2. The acceleration of car \( A \) relative to observer \( B \):
\[ \vec{a}_{A/B} = ( \quad i \quad \text{m/s}^2 ) \, \vec{i} + ( \quad j \quad \text{m/s}^2 ) \, \vec{j} \]

Note: Please fill in the blanks \( \quad i \quad \) and \( \quad j \quad \) with the appropriate numerical values derived from calculations, based on the given data and needed conversions
