v sin 20 gives the distance x travelled (in feet) by a projectile launched from 32 The formula r% = the ground, with initial velocity v (in feet/sec) and initial angle 0 (in radians or degrees). a. Write an expression for the total differential in x. b. Use the total differential to estimate the error in calculating the range of a projectile with initial velocityv 100 ft/sec and initial angle 0= 50 degrees, with measurement errors of dv = t10 ft/sec (for velocity) and d6==5 degrees (for the initial angle). (Note: remember to use radians for the differential in 0.)

A person sitting on a Ferris wheel rises and falls as the wheel turns. Suppose that the person's height above ground is described by the following function. h(t)=19.8+18.5 sin 1.9t In this equation, h (t) is the height above ground in meters, and t is the time in minutes. Find the following. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredth. Minimum height above the ground: meters Period of h: minutes Frequency of h: revolutions per minute
