Solve the situational problem involving circular function 1. A ferris wheel in las Vegas ,Nevada,opened in March 2014.The 550 ft tall wheel has a diameter of 5290 ft.A ride on its one of its 28 passenger cars last 30 minutes ,the time it takes the wheel to complete one full rotation. Riders board the passenger cars at the bottom of the wheel.Assume the once the wheel is in motion it maintains a constant speed for the 30-minutes ride and is rotating in a counter clockwise direction. If you were on this ride,how high would you be above the ground after 20 minutes?
of the
sails. The sails are turning at the rate of one counterclockwise rotation
every 60 seconds. After 1 minute and 40 seconds, Don Quixote fell of
the sail and straight down to the ground. How far did he fall?
