Designing rides for an amusement park


You have a new job designing rides for an amusement park. In one wide, the rider's chair is attached by a 9.0-m-long chain to the top of a tall rotation tower. The tower spins the chair at rate of 1.0rev every 4.0 s. You've assumed that the maximum possible combined weight of the chair and rider is 150 Kg. You've found a great price for chain at the local discount store, but your supervisor wonders if the chain is strong enough. You contact the manufacturer and learn that the chain is rated to withstand a tension of 3000N. Will this chain be strong enough for the ride? Why?
