The "Giant Swing" at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with horizontal arms attached at its upper end. Each arm supports a seat suspended from a cable 5.00 m long, and the upper end of the cable is fastened to the arm at a point 3.00 m from the central shaft as seen below. а. Find the time of one revolution of the swing if the cable supporting a seat makes an angle of 30.0 with the vertical. b. Does the angle depend on the weight of the passenger for a given rate of revolution? 3.00 m 130.0° 5.00 m
