During halftime of a basketball ​game, a sling shot launches​ T-shirts at the crowd. A​ T-shirt is launched from a height of 4 f

eet with an initial upward velocity of 64 feet per second. The​ T-shirt is caught 41 feet above the court. How long will it take the​ T-shirt to reach its maximum​ height? What is the maximum​ height? What is the range of the function that models the height of the​ T-shirt over​ time?

Answer:

(a) The time the T-shirt takes to maximum height is 2 seconds

(b) The maximum height is 68 ft

(c) The range of the function that models the height of the T-shirt over time given above is 4 + 64\cdot t - 16 \cdot  t^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we note that the general equation representing the height of the T-shirt as a function of time is

h = h_1 + u\cdot t - \frac{1}{2} \cdot g  \cdot  t^{2}

Where:

h = Height reached by T-shirt

t = Time of flight

u = Initial velocity = 64 ft/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity (negative because upward against gravity) = 32 ft/s²

h₁ = Initial height of T-shirt = 4 ft

(a) The maximum height can be found from the time to maximum height given as

v = u - gt

Where:

u = Initial velocity = 64 ft/s

v = Final upward velocity at maximum height = 0 m/s

g = 32 ft/s²

Therefore,

0 = 64 - 32·t

32·t = 64 and

t = 64/32 = 2 seconds

(b) Therefore, maximum height is then

h = 4 + 64\times 2 - \frac{1}{2} \times 32  \times  2^{2}

∴ h = 68 ft

The T-shirt is then caught 41 ft above the court on its way down

(c) The range of the function that models the height of the T-shirt over time given above is derived as

h = h_1 + u\cdot t - \frac{1}{2} \cdot g  \cdot  t^{2}

With u = 64 ft/s

g = 32 ft/s² and

h₁ = 4 ft

The equation becomes

h =4 + 64\cdot t - \frac{1}{2} \times 32  \cdot  t^{2} = 4 + 64\cdot t - 16 \cdot  t^{2}.

Simplify the expression <br> 7y+3x+3-2y+6
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

5y + 3x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever something is multiplied by the same variable, you can combine the coefficients. In this case, first you'd move the values with the same variable next to each other, for simplicity:

7y-2y+3x+3+6

Then, combine like terms.

5y+3x+3+6

5y+3x+9

In any circle of radius R, how many arcs with lengths R fit into the circumference?
xenn [34]

<h2>~<u>Solution</u> :-</h2>

If we take the radius of a circle be <u>R</u>. Then, we can define that,

$ R = x $

Hence,

Arcs will be as $ 4x $. As,

A circle can be divided into four parts according to the radius.

Hence, we know that,

x \times 4

\mapsto \: 4x

  • Hence, <em>according to the radius R</em>, a circle can have <u>4 arcs</u>.

A rock with mass of 5.0 kg is carried up a small hill 10 meters high. What is the potential energy of the rock at the hilltop?
Sonja [21]

490J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of rock = 5kg

Height of hill = 10m

Unknown:

Potential energy at the hilltop = ?

Solution:

Potential energy is the energy at rest of a body. it is given as:

                P.E = mgh

m is the mass of the body

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

h is the height of the hilltop

     P.E = 5 x 10 x 9.8 = 490J
