Answer

When you are riding in a coaster car that is traveling at a constant speed, you only feel the downward force of gravity. But as the car speeds up or slows down, you feel pressed against your seat or the restraining bar. You feel this force because your inertia is separate from that of the coaster car.

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that as you are pushed down, further and further in your seat, the seat is pushing back at you.

Velocity of a Hot-Air Balloon A hot-air balloon rises vertically from the ground so that its height after t sec is given by the
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the height reached by a balloon after t sec modeled by the equation

h=1/2t²+1/2t

a) To calculate the height of the balloon after 40 secs we will substitute t = 40 into the modeled equation and calculate the value of t

If h(t)=1/2t²+1/2t

h(40) = 1/2(40)²+1/2 (40)

h(40) = 1600/2 + 40/2

h(40) = 800 + 20

h(40) = 820 feet

The height of the balloon after 40 secs is 820 feet

b) Velocity is the change of displacement of a body with respect to time.

v = dh/dt

v(t) = 2(1/2)t²⁻¹ + 1/2

v(t) = t + 1/2

when v = 0sec

v(0) = 0 + 1/2

v(0) = 1/2 ft/sec

at v = 30secs

v(30) = 30 + 1/2

v(30) = 30 1/2 ft/sec

average velocity = v(30) - v(0)

average velocity = 30 1/2 - 1/2

average velocity of the balloon between t = 0 and t = 30 = 30 ft/sec

c) Velocity is the change of displacement of a body with respect to time.

v = dh/dt

v(t) = 2(1/2)t²⁻¹ + 1/2

v(t) = t + 1/2

The velocity of the balloon after 30secs will be;

v(30) = 30+1/2

v(30) = 30.5ft/sec

The velocity of the balloon after 30 secs is 30.5 feet/sec
