Convert each angle in degrees to radians. Express your answer as a multiple of .
Use a calculator to find the approximate value of each expression rounded to two decimal places:
The Cable Cars of San Francisco At the Cable Car Museum you can see the four cable lines that are used to pull cable cars up and down the hills of San Francisco. Each cable travels at a speed of 9.55 miles per hour, caused by a rotating wheel whose diameter is 8.5 feet. How fast is the wheel rotating? Express your answer in revolutions per minute.
If a particle has a speed of feet per second and travels a distance (in feet) in time (in seconds), then.
Approximating the Circumference of Earth Eratosthenes of Cyrene (276–195 bc) was a Greek scholar who lived and worked in Cyrene and Alexandria. One day while visiting in
Syene he noticed that the Sun’s rays shone directly down a well. On this date 1 year later, in Alexandria, which is 500 miles due north of Syene he measured the angle of the Sun to be about 6.2 degrees. See the figure. Use this information to approximate the radius and circumference of Earth.
