You are riding a ferris wheel while sitting on a scale. A ferris wheel with radius 9.7 m and a period 32s. Find the scale reading for a 60kg person at the bottom of the ferris wheel and the top of the ferris wheel, assuming it moves at a constant rate.

The scale reading at the top = 565.8N

The scale reading at the bottom = 610.44N

Explanation:

We are given:

t = 32seconds

R = 9.7meters

mass (m) = 60Kg

We take g as gravitational field = 9.8

Therefore, to find the scale reading (N) at the top, let's use the formula:

Where w = 2π/t

w = 2π/32 = 0.197

Substituting the figures into the equation, we have

N = 60 (9.8 - 0.37)

N = 60 * 9.43

Na = 565.8N

To find scalar reading at the bottom, we use;

= 60 (9.8 + 0.37)

= 60 * 10.17

it is b. absorbs thermal energy

can somebody give me the answer so i can graduate
