Question

2. An ice skater is executing a figure eight, consisting of two identically shaped, tangent circular paths. Throughout the first loop she increases her speed uniformly, and during the second loop she moves at a constant speed. Draw a motion diagram showing her velocity and acceleration vectors at several points along the path of motion.

Step 1

The skater is moving along a figure eight, which consists of two tangent circular paths. In the first loop, the skater increases her speed uniformly, indicating an acceleration. In the second loop, she moves at a constant speed, indicating no acceleration. Show more…
