The time required for a skier, initially at rest, to ski from point A to point B on an inclined plane (where B is not directly downhill from a. is given by: The time required for a skier, initially at rest, to ski from point A to point B on an inclined plane (where B is not directly downhill from a. is given by:   . In the equation above, a is the value of the parameter u at point A, b is the value of u at point B, and k is a constant. The expressions x(u) and y(u) represent parametrically the trajectory taken by the skier. The straight downhill direction is assumed to be in the direction of increasing values of y. Find the time required to complete the trip if the skier chooses the following trajectory:   . . In the equation above, a is the value of the parameter u at point A, b is the value of u at point B, and k is a constant. The expressions x(u) and y(u) represent parametrically the trajectory taken by the skier. The "straight downhill" direction is assumed to be in the direction of increasing values of y.

A medical procedure called shockwave lithotripsy is used to break up kidney stones that are too large or irregular to be passed. In this procedure, shockwaves emanating from a transducer located at the other focus. Suppose that the reflector is described by the equation A medical procedure called shockwave lithotripsy is used to break up kidney stones that are too large or irregular to be passed. In this procedure, shockwaves emanating from a transducer located at the other focus. Suppose that the reflector is described by the equation   (in units of inches), how far from the kidney stone should the transducer be placed? (in units of inches), how far from the kidney stone should the transducer be placed?
