- Road Grade A straight road rises with an inclination of 0.2 radian from the horizontal. Find the slope of the road and the change in elevation over a one-mile section of the road.arrow_forwardA baseball is hit at a point 3 feet above the ground toward the left field fence. The fence is 10 feet high and 375 feet from home plate. The path of the baseball can be modeled by the parametric equations x=115cost and y=3+115sint16t2. Does the baseball go over the fence when it is hit at an angle of =30 ? Does the baseball go over the fence when =35 ?arrow_forward
