The blades of a windmill turn on an axis that is 30 feet from the ground. The blades are 10 feet long and complete 2 rotations every minute . Write a sine model, y is equal to A sine b t plus k , for the height (in feet) of the end of one blade as a function of time t (in seconds). Assume the blade is pointing to the right when t is equal to 0 and that the windmill turns counterclockwise at a constant rate.
Answer
A
y is equal to 30 sine open paren pi over 15 t close paren plus 10
B
y is equal to 30 sine open paren pi over 15 t close paren plus 30
C
y is equal to 10 sine open paren pi over 15 t close paren plus 30
D
y is equal to 10 sine open paren pi over 15 t close paren plus 10
