The following figure shows a Ferris wheel that rotates 6 times each minute and has a diameter of 17.8. What is the centripetal acceleration of a rider?

106.8

Explanation:

If you multiply 6 and 17.8, you'll get 106.8.

If that's wrong, my apology's !

yup its correct its: c) b b

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
