MOTION: FERRIS WHEEL I. INTRODUCTION In this group project‚ we’ve decided to use a Ferris Wheel as an object to represent Uniform Circular Motion. A Ferris is a non-building structure consisting of a rotating upright wheel with passenger cars attached to the rim in such a way that as the wheel turns‚ the cars are kept upright‚ usually by gravity. Some of the largest and most modern Ferris wheels have cars mounted on the outside of the rim‚ and electric motors to

Energy in a rolling wheel Referring to Figure 1 when the wheel is released from rest and subsequently rolls down the slope‚ it accelerates and hence gains energy. Now for a rolling wheel the kinetic energy has two components
