Identify each equation. If it is a parabola, give its vertex, focus, and directrix; if it is an ellipse, give its center, vertices, and foci; if it is a hyperbola, give its center, vertices, foci, and asymptotes

9x2+4y2-18x+8y=23

Short Answer

Expert verified

It is an ellipse and it's center is :(1,-1)vertices is : (1,-1±3)and the foci is :(1,-1±5)

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information

We are given an equation as :9x2+4y2-18x+8y=23

02

.  Identifying the conic type(parabola/ellipse/hyperbola)

When either xor y is squared — not both then it is parabola.

When xand y are both squared and the coefficients are positive but different then it is ellipse

When xand yare both squared, and exactly one of the coefficients is negative and exactly one of the coefficients is positive then it is a hyperbola

So from the equation :9x2+4y2-18x+8y=23has both variable squared and has positive co-efficient so it is a ellipse

03

. Finding the center, vertices,foci 

We need to change the given equation to match the equation of an ellipse :

9x2+4y2-18x+8y=23

(x-1)24+(y+1)29=1

The equation of an ellipse is given by :

(x-h)2a2+(y-k)2b2=1or(x-h)2b2+(y-k)2a2where a>b

The given equation : (x-1)222+(y+1)232=1is of the type (x-h)2b2+(y-k)2a2=1where a=3,b=2,h=1andk=-1

The center of an ellipse is : (h,k)=(1,-1)

The vertices of a ellipse is given by : (h,k+a)=(1,-1±3)here we get : (1,2),(1,-4)

The foci of an ellipse is given by : (h,k±c)=(1,-1±5), we can findcby using c2=a2+b2

Rutherford’s Experiment In May 1911, Ernest Rutherford published a paper in Philosophical Magazine. In this article, he described the motion of alpha particles as they are shot at a piece of gold foil 0.00004 cm thick. Before conducting this experiment, Rutherford expected that the alpha particles would shoot through the foil just as a bullet would shoot through snow. Instead, a small fraction of the alpha particles bounced off the foil. This led to the conclusion that the nucleus of an atom is dense, while the remainder of the atom is sparse. Only the density of the nucleus could cause the alpha particles to deviate from their path. The figure shows a diagram from Rutherford’s paper that indicates that the deflected alpha particles follow the path of one branch of a hyperbola.

(a) Find an equation of the asymptotes under this scenario.

(b) If the vertex of the path of the alpha particles is 10cm from the center of the hyperbola, find a model that describes the path of the particle.

Semi elliptical Arch Bridge The arch of a bridge is a semi ellipse with a horizontal major axis. The span is 30feet, and the top of the arch is 10feet above the major axis. The roadway is horizontal and is 2feet above the top of the arch. Find the vertical distance from the roadway to the arch at 5-foot intervals along the roadway.
