A ferris wheel is 50 meters in diameter and boarded from a platform that is 5 meters above the ground. The six o'clock position on the ferris wheel is level with the loading platform. The wheel completes 1 full revolution in 4 minutes. The function h = f(t) gives your height in meters above the ground t minutes after the wheel begins to turn.
What is the Amplitude in meters=
What is the Midline( y=) in meters=
What is the Period in minuets=
How High are you off of the ground after 2 minutes-in meters=
Hence correct answers are :
a) Amplitude = 25 meters
b) midline, y = 30
c) Period = 4 meters
d) height after the = 2 minutes will be, h = 5 meters
