1. You are a skateboarder. You go to a skateboard park that has a merry-go-round. You hold on to the railing while the merry-go-round spins rapidly, so you are moving in a circular path while on your skateboard. Suddenly, you let go of the railing. What is the path of your motion? Assume your skateboard has perfect ball bearings and that the ground has an ideal surface so that there is no friction to slow you down2. Now think about the Ferris wheel.You are holding onto a railing on the circumference of a Ferris wheel that is turning rapidly. Suddenly, you let go. Sketch the path of your fall for at least one position in each quadrant.
