Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form for an exponential decay after t time is:

Where a is the initial value, r is the rate decay, t is the time that has passed, and d is the amount of time it takes for 1 cycle.
The initial value is 9800. So a = 9800.
The quantity cuts in half. So, r = 1/2.
And it cuts in half every 6 days. For this question, we will convert this to hours. 6 days = 144 hours. So, we can let d = 144, where t will be in hours.
Therefore, our function is:

Where t is the amount of time that has passed, in hours.
Then the quantity left after 138 hours will be:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose at t = 0 the person is 1m above the ground and going up
Knowing that the wheel completes 1 revolution every 20s and 1 revolution = 2π rad in angle, we can calculate the angular speed
2π / 20 = 0.1π rad/s
The height above ground would be the sum of the vertical distance from the ground to the bottom of the wheel and the vertical distance from the bottom of the wheel to the person, which is the wheel radius subtracted by the vertical distance of the person to the center of the wheel.
(1)
where
is vertical distance from the ground to the bottom of the wheel,
is the vertical distance from the bottom of the wheel to the person, R = 10 is the wheel radius,
is the vertical distance of the person to the center of the wheel.
So solve for
in term of t, we just need to find the cosine of angle θ it has swept after time t and multiply it with R

Note that
is negative when angle θ gets between π/2 (90 degrees) and 3π/2 (270 degrees) but that is expected since it would mean adding the vertical distance to the wheel radius.
Therefore, if we plug this into equation (1) then
