- The filament of a light bulb is a thin wire that glows when electricity passes through it. The filament of a car headlight is at the focus of a parabolic reflector, which sends light out in a straight beam. Given that the filament is 1.5 inches from the vertex, find an equation for the cross section of the reflector. The reflector is 7 inches wide. How deep is it?

- Astronomy Some comets have a hyperbolic orbit, with the sun as one focus. When the comet shown in the illustration is far away from Earth, it appears to be approaching Earth along the line y=2x . Find the equation in standard form of its orbit if the comet comes within 100 million miles of Earth.arrow_forwardComet Trajectories Some comets, such as Halley’s comet, are a permanent part of the solar system, traveling in elliptical orbits around the sun. Other comets pas through the solar system only once, following a hyperbolic path with the sun at a focus. The figure below shows the path of such a comet. Find an equation for the path, assuming that the closest the comet comes to the sun is 2109 mi and that the path the comet was taking before it neared the solar system is at a right angle to the path it continues on after leaving the solar system.arrow_forwardSuspension Bridge Each cable of the Golden Gate Bridge is suspended (in the shape of a parabola) between two towers that are 1280 meters apart.
