A satellite in a circular orbit 1250 kilometers above Earth makes one complete revolution every 110 minutes. Assuming that Earth is a sphere of radius 6378 kilometers, what is the linear speed (in kilometers per minute) of the satellite?
Airplane Ascent During takeoff, an airplane's angle of ascent is \(18^{\circ}\) and its speed is 275 feet per second. (a) Find the plane's altitude after 1 minute. (b) How long will it take for the plane to climb to an altitude of \(10,000\) feet?
Fill in the blank. If not possible, state the reason. $$\text { As } x \rightarrow-1^{+}, \text {the value of } \arccos x \rightarrow\text { _____ } .$$
For the simple harmonic motion described by the trigonometric function, find (a) the maximum displacement, (b) the frequency, (c) the value of \(d\) when \(t=5,\) and (d) the least positive value of \(t\) for which \(d=0 .\) Use a graphing utility to verify your results. $$d=9 \cos \frac{6 \pi}{5} t$$
Determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. $$\tan \frac{5 \pi}{4}=1 \quad \rightarrow \quad \arctan 1=\frac{5 \pi}{4}$$
