1. A "swing" ride at a carnival consists of chairs that are swung in a circle by 15.0-m cables attached to a vertical rotating pole, as the drawing shows. Suppose the total mass of a chair and its occupant is 179 kg. Draw the FBD of the chair + occupant at the moment shown. (a) Determine the tension in the cable attached to the chair. 60.0 15.0 m (b) Find the speed of the chair. (c) Find the total acceleration vector of the chair and occupant in both cartesian and polar unit vector coordinates. Draw the vector diagram and make it LARGE.

A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.40 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the ride and brings it up to its proper tuning rate of one complete revolution every 6.00 s. What is the least coefficient of static friction between the cat and the merry-go-round that will allow the cat to stay in place when it is to the right of the center of the ride, without sliding? The three forces acting on the cat must be identified. Which forces act on the cat? Gravitational force Static frictional force Tension Kinetic frictional force Normal force
A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.40 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the ride and brings it up to its proper tuning rate of one complete revolution every 6.00 s. What is the least coefficient of static friction between the cat and the merry-go-round that will allow the cat to stay in place when it is to the right of the center of the ride, without sliding? The directions of the three forces and the acceleration must be identified. Make a free-body diagram. Please use the blue vector to specify forces and the pink vector for acceleration. Assume that the center of rotation is to the left. DO NOT forget to label each vectors with none, mg, T, a, or FN
