Unit 3 question thread

The “Pirate ship” is a carnival ride in which a large ship shaped carriage swings backwards and forwards in a vertical arc.

The radius of the arc is 10m and the ship can swing from 45˚ to the vertical one side to 45˚ from the vertical on the other side in 3 sec.

 If an occupant has a mass of 75kg what will their apparent weight be (at the bottom of the arc) when the ride is in operation?


Does anyone want my schools motion Sac for this year, I can upload it to mediafire. It was really challenging and would make some great revision for the exam.
