an amusement park wheel has a radius of 9m, a period of 20s, and the center of the wheel is 11m off the ground.
1) model the height (h) in metres, off the ground Tom is while riding the wheel as the function of time (t) in seconds. Tom started the ride at the lowest point possible of the wheel.
2) sketch only one period of this function, starting at t= 0 seconds

An amusement park ride consists of a large vertical wheel of radius R that rotates counterclockwise on a horizontal axis through its center, as shown below. The cars on the wheel move at a constant speed v. Points A and represent the position of a car at the highest and lowest point of the ride, respectively. A person of weight Fg sits upright on a seat in one of the cars. As the seat passes point A the seat exerts a...
1. A ferris wheel has a radius of 12 m. The center of the ferris wheel is 14 m above the ground. When it is rotating at full speed the ferris wheel takes 10 s to make a full turn. We can track one seat on the ferris wheel. Let’s define t = 0 to be a time when that seat is at the top of the ferris wheel while the ferris wheel is rotating at full speed. (a) Write...
