The diagram shows a windmill with blades 20 m in length, and the centre of their circular
motion is a point 25 m above the ground. The blades take 28 seconds to make one
complete revolution when in operation. One blade has been painted red and the tip of the
red blade is currently at point P, 45 m above the ground
(i) Itis given that y= acos 4 +b, where y is the height, in metres, of the tip of the red
blade above the ground and / is the time in seconds after leaving P.
