Answer:
a. see attached
b. H(t) = 12 -10cos(πt/10)
c. H(16) ≈ 8.91 m
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a.</h3>The cosine function has its extreme (positive) value when its argument is 0, so we like to use that function for circular motion problems that have an extreme value at t=0. The midline of the function needs to be adjusted upward from 0 to a value that is 2 m more than the 10 m radius. The amplitude of the function will be the 10 m radius. The period of the function is 20 seconds, so the cosine function will be scaled so that one full period is completed at t=20. That is, the argument of the cosine will be 2π(t/20) = πt/10.
The function describing the height will be ...
H(t) = 12 -10cos(πt/10)
The graph of it is attached.

<h3>c.</h3>The wheel will reach the top of its travel after 1/2 of its period, or t=10. Then 6 seconds later is t=16.
H(16) = 12 -10cos(π(16/10) = 12 -10cos(1.6π) ≈ 12 -10(0.309017) ≈ 8.90983
The height of the rider 6 seconds after passing the top will be about 8.91 m.

So hmmm if you notice the picture below
bear in mind that, the vertex is "p" distance from the focus, and "p" distance from the directrix
now, the focus is at 4,6 and the directrix below that, meaning the parabola is vertical and opening upwards
and the vertex is half-way between the focus point and the directrix
