- A wheel with radius 2 cm is being pushed up a ramp at a rate of 7 cm per second. The ramp is 790 cm long, and 250 cm tall at the end. A point P is marked on the circle as shown (picture is not to scale). P 790 cm 250 cm Write parametric equations for the position of the point P as a function of t, time in seconds after the ball starts rolling up the ramp. Both x and y are measured in centimeters. I = y = You will have a radical expression for part of the horizontal component. It's best to use the exact radical expression even though the answer that WAMAP shows will have a decimal approximation.arrow_forwardTrace the curve r² = 4cos⁴(theta) tan²(theta).arrow_forwardUsing the graphing software application of your choice, plot the following: (a) The 3D plot of z = sin (xy).
