A woman rides on a Ferris wheel of radius 16m that maintains the same speed throughout its motion. To better understand physics, she takes along a digital bathroom scale (with memory) and sits on it. When she gets off the ride, she uploads the scale readings to a computer and creates a graph of scale reading versus time. (Figure 1) Note that the graph has a minimum value of 510N and a maximum value of 666N. The acceleration due to gravity, g=9.80m/s2. What is the woman's mass?

How do you solve this? Thank you!
Is the answer 550 kg because 55*10= 550And also it is in Newton's so it will be in kilograms so the answer is 550kg if the answer isn't 550kg then what is the answer and how can I get that answer and also explain it to me step by step.
a) Convert 22 days to seconds 2How many kilograms in 37 g b) 15 ms to minutes
