A ferris wheel is 35 meters in diameter and boarded from a platform that is 2 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 6 minutes. The function h = f(t) gives your height in meters above the ground t minutes after the wheel begins to turn. Write an equation for h = f(t).

Answer:

h=f(t)= -17.5cos(\pi /3)+20.5

Explanation:

Amplitude is 35/2=17.5

Midline= Distance from ground + Amplitude = 17.5+3= 20.5

Period is time taken to finish 6 minutes

2π/b=T

2π/b=6

b=π/3

h=f(t)= -17.5cos(\pi /3)+20.5

Answer:

y = 2 + \frac{35}{2}(1 - cos(\frac{\pi}{3} t))

Explanation:

As we know that time period of the ferris wheel is given as

T = 6 min

so we have

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{6} rad/min

\omega = \frac{\pi}{3} rad/min

now angular position at any time "t" is given as

\theta = \omega t

so the height as a function of time is given as

y = h_i + R - Rcos\theta

y = 2 + \frac{35}{2}(1 - cos(\frac{\pi}{3} t))

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

First law: kinetic energy is used to turn an electric generator

Second law: some thermal energy is lost to the environment as it travels through the system

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics is known as the law of conservation of energy. It states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transferred or changed from one form to another. When thermal energy is used to generate electricity, the kinetic energy of the steam is used to turn the electric generator (thereby producing electrical energy).

The second law of thermodynamics states that energy transfer or transformation leads to an increase in entropy resulting in the loss of energy. This law also states that as energy is transferred or transformed, some is lost in a form that is unusable. When thermal energy is used to generate electricity, some of the thermal energy is lost to the environment as it travels through the system.
