A Ferris wheel has a radius of 30 m and its centre is 32 m above the ground. It rotates once every 48 s. Ethan gets on the Feris wheel at the lowest point and then the wheel starts to rotate. The amount of time it takes Ethan to reach 38 m above the ground for the first time, to the nearest tenth of a second, is S. Your answer
