Missing information:
how long is one rotation ?
A Ferris wheel has a radius of 40 feet. The bottom of the Ferris wheel sits 0.7 feet above the ground. You board the Ferris wheel at the 6 o'clock position and rotate counter-clockwise.
a.) Write a function f that determines your height above the ground (in feet) in terms of the number of radians you have swept out from the 6 o'clock position, a.
f(a)=_________
b.) Write a function g, that determines your height above the ground (in feet) in terms of the number of feet you have traveled since you started rotating, s.
g(s)=_________
