The “Screaming Swing” is a carnival ride that is—not surprisingly—a giant swing. It’s actually two swings moving in opposite directions. At the bottom of its arc, a rider in one swing is moving at 30 m/s with respect to the ground in a 50-m-diameter circle. The rider in the other swing is moving in a similarcircle at the same speed, but in the exact opposite direction.a. What is the acceleration, in m/s2 and in units of g, that riders experience?b. At the bottom of the ride, as they pass each other, how fast do the riders move with respect to each other?
Two bugs, Buzz and Crunchy, are siting on a spinning disk on a horizontal plane. Buzz is sitting halfway and Crunchy is sitting at the outer edge as shown. The radius of the disk is 1.4 m and it rotates once every 1.2 s. What is the magnitude of Buzz's acceleration, in m/s2?
An object is thrown off the top of a building with velocity 32 m/s at an angle 34 degrees with respect to the horizontal. It takes 6.2 s for the object to land.
a. How high is the building in meters?
b. What is the horizontal distance that the object travels in meters?
