Let u = upward initial speed of the flea.

At the maximum height of h = 0.550 m, the vertical velocity is v = 0.
Therefore, from the formula
 v² = u² - 2gh,
obtain
0 = u² - 2*(9.8 m/s²)*(0.55 m) 
u² = 10.78 m²/s²
 u = 3.283 m/s

Answer: The initial upward speed is 3.28 m/s (nearest thousandth)

An object is moving in a straight line along the y axis. As a function of time, its position is given by the equation y=3.0+4.8x
romanna [79]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Instant Velocity and Acceleration </u>

Give the position of an object as a function of time y(x), the instant velocity can be obtained by

v(x)=y'(x)

Where y'(x) is the first derivative of y respect to time x. The instant acceleration is given by

a(x)=v'(x)=y''(x)

We are given the function for y

y(x)=3.0+4.8x +6.4x^2

Note we have changed the last term to be quadratic, so the question has more sense.

The velocity is

v(x)=y'(x)=4.8+12.8x

And the acceleration is a(x)=v'(x)=12.8
