One of the world's largest Ferris wheels, the Cosmo Clock 21 with a radius of 50.0 m is located in Yokohama City, Japan. Each of the sixty gondolas on the wheel takes 60 seconds to complete one revolution when it is running at full speed. Note: Ignore gravatational effects.

a) What is the speed of the gondola when the Ferris wheel is running at full speed?
b) What is the centripetal acceleration of the gondola when the Ferris wheel is running at full speed?
c) If a gondola has a mass of 120 kg, what is the centripetal force acting on the gondola?
Please explain your answer and write on paper if possible. What is the simplest way to solve?

16. a brave but inadequate rugby player is being pushed backward by an opposing player who is exerting a force of 800 n on him. the mass of the losing player plus equipment is 90.0 kg, and he is accelerating at 1.20m/s2 size 12{1 "." "20"" m/s" rsup { size 8{2} } } {} backward. (a) what is the force of friction between the losing player’s feet and the grass? (b) what force does the winning player exert on the ground to move forward if his mass plus equipment is 110 kg? (c) draw a sketch of the situation showing the system of interest used to solve each part. for this situation, draw a free-body diagram and write the net force equation.
