You are on a rollercoaster, and the path of your body is modeled by a vector function r(t), where t is in seconds, the units of distance are in feet, and t = 0 represents the start of the ride. Assume the axes represent the standard cardinal directions and elevation (x is E/W, y is N/S, z is height). Explain what the following would represent physically, being as specific as possible. These are all common roller coaster shapes/behaviors and can be explained in specific language with regard to units: a. r(0)=r(120) b. For 0 ≤ t ≤ 30, N(t) = 0
