Use Table 1.6, which gives values of v = r(s), the eyewall wind profile of a typical hurricane.?
The eyewall of a hurricane is the band of clouds that surrounds
the eye of the storm. The eyewall wind speed v (in mph) is a
function of the height above the ground s (in meters).

a) Evaluate and interpret r(300).
At what altitudes does the eyewall windspeed appear to
equal or exceed 116 mph?
c) At what height is the eyewall wind speed greatest?
b)
