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 54-m-diameter circle. The rider in the other swing is moving in a similar circle at the same speed, but in the exact opposite direction.
Part A
What is the acceleration, in m/s2, that riders experience?
Express your answer using two significant figures.
Part B
What is the acceleration, in units of g, that riders experience?
Express your answer using two significant figures.

In the swing carousel amusement park ride, riders sit in chairs that are attached by a chain to a large rotating drum as shown in (Figure 1). As the carousel turns, the riders move in a large circle with the chains tilted out from the vertical. In one such carousel, the riders move in a 19.5-m-radius circle and take 8.3 s to complete one revolution. Part A What is the angle of the chains, as measured from the vertical? Express...

Exercise 3.5 A jet plane is flying at a constant altitude. At time t1=0it has components of velocity vx= 95 m/s , vy= 112 m/s . At time t2= 26.5 s the components are vx=161 m/s , vy= 45 m/s . Part A For this time interval calculate the average acceleration. Give your answer as a pair of components separated by a comma. For example, if you think the x component is 3 and the ycomponent is 4, then you...

A camival ride is designed to allow the general public to experience high acceleration motion. The ride rotates about Point Oin a horizontal circle such that the rider has a spoed vo. The rider recines on a platform A which rides on rolers such that friction is negligible. A mechanical stop prevents the platform from rolling down the incine. The carnival ride is modified so that 80 kg riders can move up and down the inclined wall as the speed...

Deriving centripetal acceleration (shortened) For no apparent reason, a poodle is running counter-clockwise at a constant speed of 4.90 m/s in a circle with radius 2.9 m . Let v⃗ 1 be the velocity vector at time t1, and let v⃗ 2 be the velocity vector at time t2. Consider Δv⃗ =v⃗ 2−v⃗ 1 and Δt=t2−t1. Recall that a⃗ av=Δv⃗ /Δt. Hint: It may be helpful to assume that at time t1, the poodle is on the x-axis, i.e., that...

In a classic carnival ride, patrons stand against the wall in a cylindrically shaped room. Once the room gets spinning fast enough, the floor drops from the bottom of the room! Friction between the walls of the room and the people on the ride make them the "stick" to the wall so they do not slide down. In one ride, the radius of the cylindrical room is R = 6.1 m...

Problem #3 You've taken your neighbor's young child to the carnival to ride the rides. She wants LTU The Rocket. Eight rocket-shaped cars hang by chains from the outside edge of a large steel disk. A vertical axle through the center of the ride turns the disk, causing the cars to revolve in a circle. You've just finished taking physics, so you decide to figure out the speed of the cars while you wait. You estimate that the disk is...
