5. Suppose that the diameter of a Ferris Wheel is 48 feet and the center of the ferris wheel is 26 feet above the ground. It travels at a rate of 1 revolutions every 240 seconds. Draw a sketch of the Ferris wheel below. a. What is the lowest and highest height of a seat? What is the value of a in a trig equation? K 50f 24 b: ZTr 240-120 b. What is the period of the function and what is the value of b in a trig equation? p=240 I rev=240s c. Write a trig equation to model the height of a seat. (The trig function starts at its lowest point) +26 4:24 sin (170) d. After how many seconds will the seat reach the highest point for the first time? 60 sec e. What is the height of the seat after 20 seconds? 38 Ft f. On its first revolution, when will the seat be 40 feet above the ground? 245 24 d=48r=24 2 b = 1/1/20 g. Make a quick sketch of your trig graph to determine whether your answers are reasonable. Label the x-axis every 60 seconds. 50 ft 5.
