As of 2022, the Diamond and Flower Ferris Wheel is the world's 18th tallest giant observation wheel. It is a 384ft Ferris wheel in Kansai Rinkai Park, in Tokyo, Japan. With a diameter of 364 ft, it is named for its light shows and it takes just 17 minutes to complete one revolution. a) Assuming the graphical model starts at the minimum height, determine two equations (as a sine and as a cosine function) to model your height vs. time and then graph two cycles of the function.

Did you know that out from the rotation of a Ferris wheel a graph of either sine or cosine function is formed? Amazing right?! This is due to the shape of the said ride as compared to a unit circle. Assume that you were riding on the biggest Ferris wheel in the Philippines – known as the Pampanga eye. As you enter on its gondola at the base, the minimum point of the graph of the said functions above is already represented and the maximum point of the graph is located when you have reached the top of the wheel. Whereas, the period or one complete cycle of the graph is attained when you reach at the base again. Your task this time is to sketch the graph of a circular function based on the movement of a Ferris wheel, determine its amplitude and period, and illustrate its domain and range. Now, let’s get started! From riding the Ferris wheel, you observe the following: (1) The gondola is 2 meters off the ground; (2) The top portion of the wheel is 60 meters from the gondola at the base (3)…

Aleksei lives in Yakutsk--- the coldest inhabited city in the world where the average temperature goes down to as low as -50 oC during winter. Yakutsk is built on permafrost, and it is not uncommon to find whole bodies of preserved mammoths should one dig into the ground. One Christmas day, while Aleksei was trying to design an arch in the shape of an inverted catenary, his home heating decided to stop working. Fortunately (or not) Newton’s law of cooling still works. So here goes the problem you need to solve: (a) At 9 AM, the temperature inside Aleksei’s house was 20 oC. Two hours later, the temperature inside his house was 15.5 oC. The ambient temperature on that day was -60 oC. Find k for his house. (b) At what time will the temperature drop to zero? (c) Aleksei’s dad who holds a doctor’s degree in physics and serves as director of Russia’s Permafrost Engineering Institute arrived from work at 7 PM and was able to fix the heater at 9 PM. After 2 h, the room temperature was 5 oC. At…
