This was my favorite ride/game at Happy Valley. It required a careful knowlege of physics to win. Some kid beat me, but he cheated. My strategy to stay on the rotating platform was to lift myself up so that all of my weight was supported by my two hands. This created a much larger amount of friction at two points rather than a small amount of friction under my entire lower half.
Physics Activity: Explain why some people on the rotating platform appear more blurred than others. Draw a vector diagram as part of your explanation.
