A Ferris wheel having radius of 14 m rotates counterclockwise is just starting up. At a given instant, a passenger on the rim of the wheel sand passing through the lowest point of his circular motion is moving at 3.00 m/s and is gaining speed at a rate of 0.500 m/s^2. Find the magnitude and direction of the passenger’s acceleration at this instant.
