Problem 2 (35 pts). A Ferris wheel is a vertical, circular amusement ride. Riders sit on seats that swivel to remain horizontal as the wheel turns. The wheel has a radius R and rotates at a constant rate (angular velocity.co) going around once in a time T. a) Draw a free body diagram of forces acting on the rider at the bottom of the ride b) At the bottom of the ride, what are the magnitude and direction of the force exerted by the seat on a ride of mass m? c) Find the magnitude of angular velocity, so at the bottom of the ride, the normal force on the rider is 2 times of their weight
