A Ferris wheel has a radius of 42.4 feet. The bottom of the Ferris wheel sits 0.8 feet above
the ground. You board the Ferris wheel at the 6 o'clock position and rotate counter-
clockwise.
a. Define a function, f that gives your height above the ground (in feet) in terms of the
angle of rotation (measured in radians) you have swept out from the 6 o'clock
position, a
f(a)-42.4sin(a)+43.2
Preview
b. Define a function, g, that gives your height above the ground (in feet) in terms of the
number of feet you have rotated counter-clockwise from the 6 o'clock position, s.
g(s)=43.2+42.2sin(s/42.4)

A skateboarder is attempting to skate through a vertical loop of radius r = 7.5 m. He skates down a ramp and is launched into the loop by an inclined plane that makes an angle of θ = 45 degrees with respect to the horizontal.
a. If the skateboarder begins from rest how high does the ramp he starts from have to be so that he does not fall at the top of the loop? Give your answer in meters.
A roller coaster car rolls down a frictionless track, reaching speed ν at the bottom.a. If you want the car to go twice as fast at the bottom, by what factor must you increase the height of the track?b. Does your answer to part a depend on whether the track is straight or not? Explain.

- H6. A skier/snowboarder starts at rest at the top of a snowy (friction-free) hill with height h1. After the bottom of this hill there is a small “jump” hill. The top of the jump has height h2 and a curvature of radius R. What is the minimum height of the starting hill, h1min, so that the skier/snowboarder jumps or “catches air” at the top of hill 2? Solve for h1min in terms of h2, R, and g.
