Prezi: ) To hear what athletes are saying on the field or on the course, sports reporters use microphones with parabolic shields to concentrate the sound at a microphone.For optimum audio reception, the microphone should be placed at the focus of this parabola. Determine the coordinates of the focus, then write the equation of the parabola.(Hint: Write an equation for a parabola based on ordered pairs.)Answer:- Vertex at origin (0,0)- The point 0.75,2.5 belong to the graph.- The direction is horizontal right?- General equation:x=a(y-k)2+hTo find a:0.75=a2.5-02+0a=0.12The equation will be:x=0.12(y-0)2+0So, x= (0.12)y2 Focus=h+14a, k→0+140.12, 0→(2.08, 0) so the vertex will be2512 ft to the right of the vertex and a=0.12Part 2:?Solar System:11176002603500The elliptical orbit of Pluto has the greatest eccentricity among all planets of our solar system (? = 0.248). Pluto’s orbit has the sun at one focus and a major axis of 79.6 AU (astronomical units).Consider Pluto’s orbit on a giant coordinate grid where x and y are measured in AU and the sun is at the origin. (As shown in the figure above)Use the length of the major axis to determine a.a=79.62=39.8 AUUse the eccentricity and a to determine the focal radius c. (Round to 2 decimal places.)c=ea=0.24839.8=9.87 AUWrite an equation of the form to model Pluto’s orbit. (Find b first.)c2=a2-b2(9.87)2=(39.8)2-b2b2≈1486.62Equation:(x-9.87)21584.04+y21486.62=1The perigee is when the Pluto is closest to the sun. The apogee is when it is furthest from the sun. What are the distances from the sun at these points?Perigee=a+c = 29.93 AU Apogee=a-c=49.67Part 3: Bridge:-377190059753500Mohamed and Salim study a drawing of an ornamental bridge such as the one shown at the right. It shows an elliptical arch that spans a narrow strait of water. The arch they are studying can be modeled by the following formulaMohamed wants to know the dimensions of the arch Which term in the equation defines the horizontal axis? x2182.25Write a comparative statement to show whether the major axis of the arch ?is horizontal or vertical Since 182.5>132.25, the major axis is horizontal.Mohamed says that the width of the bridge is 13.5 feet. Is he correct? ?Explain. No; 13.5 ft is the distance from the center of the bridge to one side, so the width is 27 ft?Write an expression for the height of the bridge. b= 132.25=11.5 ftSo the height will = 11.5 ftSalim notes that this bridge is hardly high enough to pass under while standing up in a moderate-size boat. If he were to build a bridge, it would be at least 1.3 times as wide and twice as high. Find the vertices and co-vertices of Salim’s bridge design. vertices:17.55,0, (-17.55,0)C0-Vertices: 0,23, (0,23)Write an equation for the design of Salim’s bridge using his minimum ?dimensions x2308.00+y2529.00=1Part 4: Application:-A cross-section of a parabolic reflector is shown in the figure. The bulb is located at the focus and the opening at the focus is 10 cm2393950104140007575551184910002183130-317500 y xFind an equation of the parabola. Let the vertex (h, k) (0,0) “ at origin” Letus Rectum = 1a=10cma is positive since it is opening right. a=1letus rectum= 110=0.1Focus: h+14a, k 0+14(0.1), 0 focus (4,0)x=a (y-k)2+h x=110 (y-0)2+0 x=110 y2 The equation of parabola is x=110 y2Find the diameter of the opening |CD|, 11 cm from the vertex. C= (11,y), D= (11,-y) to find y1, y2 we should substitute:x1=110 y12 ; y12=10 x→y1=10x 1011→ 110C= (11,110), D=(11,-110)CD=(y2-y1)2+(x 2-x1)2→ (-110 -110 )2+(11-11)2→2110 cmThe diameter is 2110 cmPart 5:In the LORAN (LOng RAnge Navigation) radio navigation system, two radio stations located at A and B transmit simultaneous signals to a ship located at P. The onboard computer converts the time difference in receiving these signals into a distance difference |PA| |PB|, and this, according to the definition of a hyperbola, locates the ship on one branch of a hyperbola (see the figure).Suppose that station B is located 400 mi due east of station A on a coastline. A ship received the signal from B 1200 microseconds (s) before it received the signal from A.Assuming that radio signals travel at a speed of 980 ft/s, find an equation of the hyperbola on which the ship lies.1- Horizontal 2- Center (0,0)3- F1 -200,0 & F2 200,04- d= (-200-200)2+(0-0)2=4005- c = 4002=200 mi6- d=s.t=1200×980=1176000 ft=245011 mi7- According to definition PF1-PF2=2a8- 2a=245011 mi a=122511 mi9- b2=c2-a2 b2=40000-1225112=27598.1405 mi The final equation is x212401.8595-y227598.1405=1 If the ship is due north of B, how far of the coastline is the ship?x212401.8595-y227598.1405=1 (200)212401.8595-y227598.1405=1 -y227598.1405=1- (200)212401.8595 -y227598.1405= -2.225322783y=-27598.1405-2.225322783 =247.820 mi y≈248 miRubricsCriteriaPoints4321?Completeness of Tasks20%Tasks are totally completed and correct.
