Passengers in a whirly-go-round (a "puke your guts out" amusement ride) are subjected to accelerations of 2.5 g's at the end of a 3.5 m pole as they move in a circular path. What speed (in m/s) do they experience?

Answer #1

a = v^2/r

2.5* 9.8 = v^2/ 3.5

v = 9.26 m/s

    Constants | Periodic Table Part A In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 5.1-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their backs against the wall. The cylinder begins to rotate about a vertical axis. Then the floor on which the passengers are standing suddenly drops away! If all goes well, the passengers will "stick" to the wall and not slide. Clothing has a static coefficient of friction against steel in the range 0.64 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient...

    PRACTICE ANOTHER The figure shows a photo of a swing ride at an amusement park. The structure consists of a horizontal, rotating, circular platform of diameter D from which seats of mass m are suspended at the end of massless chains of length d. When the system rotates at constant speed, the chains swing outward and make an angle θ with the vertical. Consider such a ride with the following parameters: D = 8.50 m, d = 2.50 m, m...

    You ride the new rollercoast at your favorite amusement park. You start out at a height of h1=900m above the ground, descend to ground level at h2=0m, and end at a height of h3=600m. What is the speed of the rollercoast at h2 and h3? If the coaster has a mass of 350kg and travels 110m after reaching h3, what is the friction coefficient (uk)? The track is frictionless from h1-h3 and has friction after h3.
