Given the parameters of the Ferris wheel (height, radius, rate) predict the shape of the graph for the height of the red dot over time. Then check your prediction by running the simulation (pressing "Play"). Then match the parameters of the Ferris wheel to the curves produced by problems 1, 2, 3, and 4 by adjusting the sliders for height, radius, and rate. Check your prediction by running the simulation.
