Uniform Circular Motion: You need to design a wheel for testing purposes such that its rim will have an acceleration of 1.5 g when the rim is moving at 37 m/s while spinning. What should be the diameter of this wheel?

We want to have an acceleration of:

A = 1.5*g = 1.5*9.8m/s^2  = 14.7 m/s^2

When the rim is moving at 37m/s while spinning.

Now, in circular motion we have two accelerations.

Tangential acceleration, that is the one related to the change of speed, as we have a speed of 37m/s, we can assume that is constant, then the tangential acceleration is zero.

Centripetal acceleration, is the one related to the change in direction, is perpendicular to the velocity vector and is the one that allows the circular motion.

I suppose that in this problem we want to have a  centripetal acceleration of 14.7m/s^2

The equation for the centripetal acceleration is:

Ac = v^2/r

Where v = velocity and r = radius.

then we must solve:

14.7m/s^2 = (37m/s)^2/r

r = (37m/s)^2/14.7m/s^2 = 93.13 m

there is no correct list among the choices you've provided.

the list might look something like this:

-- baby human

-- piccolo

-- flute

-- soprano singer

-- trumpet

-- tenor singer

-- trombone

-- baritone singer

-- baritone horn

-- bass singer

-- tuba

since i had to make up the list myself, i made it easy on myself, and i didn't try to shuffle the string instruments and woodwinds into it too.
