Chapter 20.1, Problem 93ES
In 1893, Pittsburgh bridge builder George Ferris designed and built a gigantic revolving steel wheel whose height was 264 feet and diameter was 250 feet. This Ferris wheel opened at the 1893 exposition in Chicago. It had 36 wooden cars, each capable of holding (A) passengers. (Source: The handy Science Answer Book)
a. What was the radius of this Ferris wheel?
b. How close was the wheel to the ground?
c. How high was the center of the wheel from the ground?
d. Using the axes in the drawing, what are the coordinates of the center of the wheel?
e. Use parts a and d to write an equation of the wheel.
