Suppose that Arman is boarding a ferris wheel at the bottom-most point of the ride. The ferris wheel has a radius of 47 feet, and the bottom-most point of the ferris wheel is 6 feet off the ground. The ferris wheel rotates at a rate of 0.05 radians per second, and each ferris wheel ride lasts for three full rotations of the ferris wheel. a. Determine a function rule for h, which outputs d, Arman's height above the ground (in feet), in terms of t, the number of seconds since the ferris wheel began rotating.
h(t) = 45sin(.05t-pi/2)+53
b. Over the course of the ferris wheel ride, how many times is Arman 98 feet above the ground?
Determine the number of seconds that have gone by since the ferris wheel ride began that Arman is 98 feet above the ground.
c. The problem you just solved is similar to solving which of the following equations?
a. f(t) = 53.
b. t=0.
c. sin(0.056 t - pi/2) = 1.
d. f(t) = 0.
e. 45 sin (0.056 t - pi/2) + 53 = 98.
f. f(t) = 98
