Pre calc Word Problem Please Help!!! ASAP

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-05-12] [Hit: ]
They will be at the top of the ride 5 times total at the times 16 seconds, 48 seconds, 80 seconds, 112 seconds and 144 seconds.......
A ferris wheel is built that the height h (IN FEET) above ground of a seat on the wheel at the time t(IN MINUTES) can be modeled by: h(t)=53+50sin[ (pi/16)(T)-(pi/2)]
The wheel makes one revolution every 32 seconds. The ride begins when t=0.

A) During the first 32 seconds of the ride, when will a person on the ferris wheel be 53 feet above ground?

B.) When will a person be at the top of the ferris wheel for the first time during the ride? If the ride lasts 160 SECONDS, How many times will a person be at the top of the ride, and and what times? (Hint use a calculator)



Please show work! Thanks for your help! :)))
