Kendra boards a Ferris wheel at the 3-o'clock position and rides the Ferris wheel for one full rotation. The radius of the Ferris wheel is 12 meters long and the center of the Ferris wheel is 17 meters above the ground. Imagine an angle with a vertex at the center of the Ferris wheel subtending the path Kendra travels since the Ferris wheel started rotating. Let 0 represent this angle's measure in radians. a. Write an expression (in terms of 0) that represents Kendra's varying height above the center of the Ferris wheel (in meters). Preview b. Write an expression (in terms of 0) that represents Kendra's varying height above the ground (in meters). Preview
A CD has diameter of 120 millimeters. When playing audio, the angular speed varies to keep the linear speed constant where the disc is being read. When reading along the outer edge of the disc, the angular speed is about 200 rpm (revolutions per minute). Find the linear speed. Round answer two decimal places. The linear speed of reading along the outer edge of the disc is ____ meters per second.
A pottery wheel spins counter-clockwise with an initial angular speed of 68.7 rpm, as a potter sculpts a clay vase. The potter pushes on the pedal to apply an acceleration of 6.81 rad/s2, and the wheel steadily speeds up to a top angular speed 140 rpm. Use radians as the standard unit for angles.
