eS Each container is a cylinder and the containers are geometrically similar. ‘The bases of the Coffee and Spice containers have diameters of lengths 10 cm and 6 cm respectively. {a) Calculate the ratio volume of the Spice container : volume of the Coffee container. Hence, find the volume of the Spice container if the volume of the Coffee container is 980 cm?, 8) (b) Given that the sunfce area ofthe Tea container is -of the surface area of the Surface area of the Spice container BI Coffee container, evaluate ‘Surface area of the Tea container 7 At the National Day Parade, a parachutist descended from a helicopter (not shown in the diagram). When he was at point P, he began to descend vertically at a constant speed of 7 m/s towartls point Q on the parade ground. To record the descent, an aulomated motorized video camera was placed at point C on the parade ground, 100 m away from point Q. The angle of depression of C from P was 60° P s Q 100 m c (i) Calculate the time taken for the parachutist to reach the parade ground. BI (i) Given that in the descent, it took 10 s for the parachutist to reach point S, calculate the angle of elevation of S from C. BISingapore aims to be a test-bed for micro-wind technology generating electricity ‘with low wind speeds. A wind power station is proposed to be erected in a 250 m by 250 m horizontal field at Pulau Ubin and some wind towers will be built. Each wind tower has three rotor blades and the length of each blade is 40 m. (®) According to building regulations, the minimum distance between two wind towers, measured from the foot of one tower to another, has to be five times the length of a rotor blade. An engineer made a suggestion on how to arrange five wind towers W, W2, Ws, W, and Ws, in the square field. The arrangement is shown in the diagram below. m 250m 2 250 m Explain why the engineer's suggestion does not meet the building regulations. Support your answer with working, 2) (b) Singapore wants to estimate the cost savings from generating electricity through this wind station. The formula C =—10y? + 90y—130is used to estimate the cost savings in C million dollars during the first y years of operation, This formula can be re-written as C= aly ~n)? + mwhere it will take m years to achieve the maximum cost savings of m million dollars. Find the maximum cost savings and the number of years it will take to achieve this, 1) 1st [Please Tur OverBonus Question a and f are the roots of the quadratic equation ax" +x +c =0 where a, b and c are constants and a #0.
