Answer:
It takes 3 seconds over the interval [0,3]
Step-by-step explanation:
To find when the roller coaster reaches the ground, find when d=0.
To solve divide each term by 16 and factor:
Solve for t by setting each factor to 0.
t-3=0 so t=3
t+3=0 so t=-3
This means the car is in the air from 0 to 3 second.
Refer to the attached image.
As we can observe ABCD is a square, whose corners that is A,B,C and D lie on the circle.
The diameter AC = 0.35 meter.
We have to find the side of square.
Let the measure of side of a square be 'l' meter
In triangle ABC,
By Pythagoras theorem, we get
So, l = 0.25 meter
Therefore, the measure of side of the square is 0.25 meter.
