You bicycle along a straight flat road with a safety light attached to one foot. Your bike moves at a speed of 10 km/hr and your

foot moves in a circle of radius 24 cm centered 34 cm above the ground, making one revolution per second.
(a) Find parametric equations for x and y which describe the path traced out by the light, where y is distance (in cm) above the ground and x the horizontal distance (in cm) starting position of the center of the circle around which your foot moves. Assuming the light starts cm above the ground, at the front of its rotation.
x(t)=
y(t)=

(b) How fast (in revolutions/sec) would your foot have to be rotating if an observer standing at the side of the road sees the light moving backward?
Rotate at ? revolutions/second.

Answer:

A) X(t) = 2.78t + 0.24cos 2πt

& Y(t) = 0.24 - 0.24sin2πt

B) 1000(n-0.5) ≤ r ≤ 1000n

Foe values of n at 1, and 2, the speed is between 500 & 1000 and between 1500 & 2000 respectively. For higher values of n, we can calculate the range of r from the formula.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the parametric equation, we need to find the vector for horizontal and vertical movements. Let's call it (x(t), y(t))

Since there is no vertical movement of bicycle, the initial component is;

(0, 0.24) (since it's centred 34cm above ground)

Now let's convert 10km/h to m/s;

Hence, 10km/h = 2.78 m/s

So vector of this in horizontal direction is; (2.78t,0)

Now, the circular motion component for vector with radius 0.24m is; (0.24cos 2πt, - 0.24Sin 2πt).

Now, when we add the 3 components to get;

X(t) = 0 + 2.78t + 0.24cos 2πt

= 2.78t + 0.24cos 2πt

And Y(t) = 0.24 + 0 - 0.24sin2πt

= 0.24 - 0.24sin2πt

For motion to appear backwards, we should only see half a revolution in his eye period. Therefore, for this, n ≥ 1, eye period is (n-0.5)P

Where P is the light period.

From research, human eye can see up to 1000 frames per second; therefore, converting it to seconds per frame, we have ; 1/1000 = 0.001

Hence,

(n-0.5)P ≤ 0.001 ≤ nP

Multiplying each term by 1000/P to get;

1000(n-0.5) ≤ 1/P ≤ 1000n

1/P is called rate of revolution (r)

So, 1000(n-0.5) ≤ r ≤ 1000n

So that's the formula when n ≥ 1.

When n is 1, r is between 500 and 100. When n is 2, r is between 1500 and 2000. And so it goes for values of n greater than 1.

Find the 10th term of the following sequences T(2)=20 and the term-to-term rule is subtract 6​
rjkz [21]
<h3>Answer is   -28</h3>

==================================================

Work Shown:

T(2) = 20 means the second term is 20

T(1) = 26 because we go backwards from what the rule says (subtract 6) to step back one term. Going forward, 26-6 = 20.

Since a = 26 is the first term and d = -6 is the common difference, the nth term is

T(n) = a + d*(n-1)

T(n) = 26 + (-6)(n-1)

T(n) = 26 - 6n + 6

T(n) = -6n + 32

Plugging n = 1 into the equation above leads to T(1) = 26. Using n = 2 leads to T(2) = 20.

Plug in n = 10 to find the tenth term

T(n) = -6n + 32

T(10) = -6(10) + 32

T(10) = -60+32

T(10) = -28

an angle measures 24° less than the measure if a supplementary angle . what is the measure of each angle​
vagabundo [1.1K]

Hey there!

If two angles are supplementary, that means that the measures of the two angles have a sum of 180.

If the two angles were of equal measure, they would both be 90 degrees.

The easiest way to get this would be to subtract 12 degrees from one 90 degree angle and add them to the other 90 degree angle so one angle has 24 more degrees then the other.

90 - 12 = 78

90 + 12 = 102

Let's check to make sure this works.

102 + 78 = 180 That checks out.

102 - 24 = 78 That also works.

So, the measures of the angles are 102 and 78.

Hope this helps!
