Physical realities are often obscured because of human error and subjectivity. Mathematics is often used to define such realities. With varying interpretations of what exactly happened during John F. Kennedy’s assassination, it is necessary for the knower to find truth and in this case, through the usage of mathematics. Lee Harvey Oswald fired several shots at President Kennedy from the 6th Floor of the Texas Schoolbook Depository Building. The approximate height from the ground to the place where Oswald fired the shots is 417.08 feet. Oswald fired from a distance of 565 feet from his position to President Kennedy, but missed. He moves his rifle along with the movement of Kennedy’s motorcade, which is moving at a constant rate of 4 miles per hour. When Oswald is 540 feet from Kennedy, his shot doesn’t miss. Determine the rate in which Oswald is moving his rifle angle in radians per second (Hint: convert miles to feet and hours to seconds).
