No! Carousels move in a circle (at least all the carousels I know do) in circular motion there is constant acceleration directed towards the center of the circle of magnitude a=v2/r

Can a velocity be reversed if acceleration is constant?

Sure. A pendulum, a child's playground swing, and a bullet shot straight up all have constant acceleration, and all reverse direction.


A 34.1 kg child rides a Ferris wheel whose diameter is 18.3 m When the ride is turning at a constant rate the child's speed has a constant value of 4.23 ms Find the normal force the seat exerts?

The normal force the seat exerts on the child is equal to the gravitational force acting on the child, which is the weight of the child. This can be calculated using the formula: weight = mass * gravity. Therefore, the normal force is 34.1 kg * 9.81 m/s^2 = 334.52 N.


A child riding a merry-go-round is accelerating because the child?

is experiencing a centripetal acceleration directed towards the center of the merry-go-round due to the circular motion. This acceleration constantly changes the direction of the child's velocity, even though the speed may remain constant, resulting in acceleration.


If a small child has a wagon with a mass of 10 kilograms and the child pulls on the wagon with a force of 2 newtons what is the acceleration of the wagon?

To find the acceleration of the wagon, you need to use the formula F = ma, where F is the force applied, m is the mass of the wagon, and a is the acceleration. Rearranging the formula to solve for acceleration, a = F/m. Plugging in the values, a = 2 N / 10 kg = 0.2 m/s^2.


A father swings his child around in a circle The source of the centripetal force that keeps the child moving in a circle is?

The centripetal force that keeps the child moving in a circle is provided by the tension in the rope or the force exerted by the father's hand on the child. This force is directed towards the center of the circle, preventing the child from moving in a straight line tangential to the circle.

If the child pushes you who will have the larger acceleration you or a child?

well it does depend on how much you weigh if you are a child then you both would have the same acceleration but if you are an adult then the child would have no acceleration. O: i am so smart.

What is true meaning of the law of acceleration?

What is true meaning of the law of acceleration? If you mean Newton's 2nd law which states that a force causes a mass to accelerate. Acceleration measures how fast your velocity changes. I will give you an example. If you know a child with a wagon, this could be fun. The child is sitting on the wagon. Right now the child is at rest (velocity =0). He does not like being at rest, so he asks you to push him. As you push him he giggles, oh what fun. He is now moving (v = 6 m/s, not 0). Your friend said, "Do that again, and I will time how many seconds it takes for you to get him going that fast." It took 2 seconds for you to reach a velocity of 6 m/s. That means you were accelerating at a rate of 3 m/s each second. When you push the wagon, you exert a force, which causes the child and wagon to accelerate. Newton's 2nd law states that a force causes a mass to accelerate 1) Your push is the force. 2) The child and wagon are the mass. 3) The acceleration is the result. As a formula, Force = mass * acceleration I hope this helps


How do you unlock the Sharp Carousel microwave?

To unlock a Sharp Carousel microwave, you typically press and hold the "Stop/Clear" button for 3 seconds. This should deactivate the child lock feature and allow you to use the microwave normally. If this method does not work, consult the user manual for specific instructions tailored to your model.


Can constant fights at home worsen the condition of an autistic child?

Yes, constant fighting in the home can have a detrimental affect on any child. An autistic child who is stressed, or overloaded due to empathy towards others in the family suffering, will have worsened symptoms.
