4.
A cyclist is travelling in a straight path at a constant speed along a dirt
road with a button stuck to the outside of one of their wheels.
The movement of the button (as viewed from the side) can be described using the
equations of a cycloid,
I = r(t – sin t),
y = r(1 – cost)
where t represents the angle through which the wheel has rotated and r represents
the radius of the wheel.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloid or
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0Z9OeJbRy4 for more details!
Every time the button touches the ground, it leaves a mark on the dirt. If the
marks are 647 cm apart, what is the radius of the tire wheel?
What value(s) of t correspond to the button touching the ground?
Show that when t = 27, we have = 0. Does this mean that the cyclist is
stopped? Why or why not?
