Jasmine is diving off a 3-meter springboard. her height in meters above the water when she is x meters horizontally from the end

olganol [36]

Answer:

5.25 m

Explanation:

Given;

The height equation h;

h=-x^2+3x+3

Where;

h = the height above water

x = horizontal distance from the end of the board

The maximum height is at h' = 0, when change in h with respect to change in x is equal to zero.

differentiating the equation h.

dh/dx = h' = -2x + 3 = 0

Solving for x;

2x = 3

x = 3/2

Substituting into the function h;

h max = -x^2+3x+3

h max = -(3/2)^2 + 3(3/2) +3 = -9/4 +9/2 +3 = 9/4 + 3 =

h max = 21/4 = 5.25 m

an object traveling 200 feet per second slows to 50 feet per second in 5 seconds. Calculate the acceleration of the object

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is $-30\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity of object $v_i$ = 200 feet/second

Final velocity of object $v_f$ = 50 feet/second

Time of travel = 5 seconds

To calculate acceleration of the object we will find the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.

So, acceleration $a$ is given by:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

where $v_f$ represents final velocity, $v_i$ represents initial velocity and $t$ is time of travel.

Plugging in values to evaluate acceleration.

$a=\frac{50-200}{5}$

$a=\frac{-150}{5}$

$a=-30\ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the object is $-30\ m/s^2$ (Answer). The negative sign shows the object is slowing down.

How do you find the change in potential energy

ratelena [41]

P.E = mgh

This is the formula for potential energy.

This is where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is height.

All you have to do is multiply all these numbers together.

What is the relationship between the atoms of elements,its isotopes and its ions

klasskru [66]

An element refers to a collection of atoms having the same number of protons and electrons (an atomic number). In each element there is a different atomic number due to a different amount of protons in the nucleus.

An isotope is a variation of an element that contains a different number of neutrons, therefore adding weight to the atom.

An ion is a charged atom, and its charge shows how many electrons it needs to gain or lose in order to become stable.

In order to create a charged object, you need to ________.

Brums [2.3K]

In order to create a charged object you need to transfer electrons either away or to the object by induction, conduction, or friction

Induction is without contact(like bringing a charged object to a electroscope charges the leaves at the bottom)
Conduction is with contact(like the previous answer, wore touching transfers the charge from a source to the object)
Friction(rubbing a balloon on wool)
