Chapter 4, Problem 22PCE

Fairgoers ride a Ferris wheel with a radius of 5.00 m (Figure 4-22). The wheel completes one revolution every 32.0 s. (a) What is the average speed of a rider on this Ferris wheel? (b) If a rider accidentally drops a stuffed animal at the top of the wheel, where does it land relative to the base of the ride? (Note: The bottom of the wheel is 1.75 m above the ground.)

In the winter sport of bobsledding, athletes push their sled along a horizontal ice surface and then hop on the sled as it starts to careen down the steeply sloped track. In one event, the sled reaches a top speed of 9.2 m/s before starting down the initial part of the track, which is sloped downward at an angle of 6.0°. What is the sled’s speed after it has traveled the first 100 m?

A girl on a bicycle takes 15.8 s to ride half way around a circular track of radius 20.0 m (see the figure below). R At t = 0 HINT (a) What is the girl's average speed (in m/s)? m/s (b) What is the magnitude of her average velocity (in m/s)? m/s
