The london eye, one of the largest ferris wheels, was recently built near the bank of the river thames in london. it has a diameter of 394 feet and it takes 30 minutes for a complete rotation. what is the centripetal force experienced by a 150 lb person sitting in one of the passenger capsules?

c. magnitude and direction

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.

i would say
