Use the fact that the orbit of a planet about the Sun is an ellipse, with the Sun at one focus. The aphelion of a planet is its greatest distance from the Sun, and the perihelion is its shortest distance. The mean distance of a planet from the Sun is the length of the semimajor axis of the elliptical orbit. The mean distance of Earth from the Sun is 93 million miles. If the aphelion of Earth is 94.5 million miles, what is the perihelion? Find an equation for the orbit of Earth around the Sun.
The arch of a bridge is a semiellipse with a horizontal major axis. The span is 30 feet, and the top of the arch is 10 feet above the major axis. The roadway is horizontal and is 2 feet above the top of the arch. Find the vertical distance from the roadway to the arch at 5 -foot intervals along the roadway.
A football is in the shape of a prolate spheroid, which is simply a solid obtained by rotating an ellipse \(\left(\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1\right)\) about its major axis. An inflated NFL football averages 11.125 inches in length and 28.25 inches in center circumference. If the volume of a prolate spheroid is \(\frac{4}{3} \pi a b^{2},\) how much air does the football contain? (Neglect material thickness.)

Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is a procedure that uses shockwaves to fragment kidney stones without the need for surgery. Using an elliptical reflector, a shock wave generator is placed at one focus and the kidney stone is positioned at the other focus. Shock waves pass through a water column and disintegrate the stone, allowing it to be passed out of the body naturally. If the equation of the ellipse formed by the reflector is \(\frac{x^{2}}{324}+\frac{y^{2}}{100}=1,\) how far from the kidney stone does the shock wave generator need to be placed? (Units are in centimeters)
