Answer:
<u><em>y = -190 cos(π t / 120) + 195</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>General form of a sinusoidal function: y = A cos(Bt - C) + D
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>Now generally a cosine function starts at the maximum value, so to start at the minimum value, flip the cosine function by making it negative.
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>A is the amplitude of the curve and will be the radius of the ferris wheel. Therefore, A = 380 / 2 = 190 feet.
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>
2π / B is the period of the curve and will be the time to complete one full rotation. The time to complete one full rotation is given as 4 minutes. Convert this into seconds to get period = 4 minutes * (60 seconds / minute) = 240 seconds. Therefore, B = 2π / period = 2π / 240 seconds = π / 120.
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>
C/B is the phase shift, or horizontal shift of the graph. Since the negative cosine function already starts at the minimum value, there is no phase shift so C/B = 0, meaning C = 0.
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>
D is the vertical shift and will be the height of the center of the ferris wheel. Therefore, D = 195 feet.
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>
Your final function will be:</em>
<u><em>y = -190 cos(π t / 120) + 195</em></u>
The location of the sensor that it is opposite the direction of the wind is reasonable and is needed to identify the plant's emissions. However, there might be a bias to that if it is located a mile from the plant's smokestack. The distance may be quite far. Considerations in identifying the location of the sensors such as changes in wind direction, wind speed, atmospheric stability, physical stack height, diameter, and other important factors are needed to have an accurate reading of the pollutants.
Answer:
cos (A+B+C)
Step-by-step explanation:
as A,B,C, are triangle we have A,B and C as 180
cost
So the formula for the circumference of a circle is π x diameter
Since we know the the circumference already, we just divide that by π:
12π / π = 12
Now we halve the diameter to get the radius:
12 / 2 = 6
The area of a circle is π x radius²
So the area is:
·π x 6² = 36π· (or 113 not in terms of π)
X/3=60
then multiply each side by 3 and x will equal 180
