Answer:

4.643 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that

s = 6 feet

v = 73 feet per second

Substituting these values in the formula H(t)=-16t^2+vt+s

H(t)=-16t^2+73t+6

When the ball hits the ground, the height becomes zero. Thus, H(t)=0

-16t^2+73t+6=0

We solve the equation using quadratic formula x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Substituting the values a=-16,\:b=73,\:c=6

t_{1,\:2}=\frac{-73\pm \sqrt{73^2-4\left(-16\right)6}}{2\left(-16\right)}\\\\=\frac{-73\pm\sqrt{5713}}{-2\cdot \:16}\\\\=-0.081,4.643

time can't be negative. Hence, t = 4.643.

Hence, the ball will take  4.643 seconds to hit the ground.

A pirate shoots a cannonball into the air from a height of 10
Aneli [31]

We are basically given most of what we need to calculate the height of the cannonball.

We use the formula h = –16t+ vt + s to find the height requested.

Let v = 160

Let s = 10

Let t = time in seconds

Was the value of t included? We need to know t to plug into our formula.

You know everything else except for t. Go back to your notes to search for t. Afterward, plug the value of t and everything else given above into the formula and calculate to find h.
