The time that the ball is in the air if the player lets the ball drop is 2.145 sec
What is a quadratic equation?
A quadratic equation is an algebraic equation of the second degree in x. The quadratic equation in its standard form is ax²+ bx + c = 0, where a and b are the coefficients, x is the variable, and c is the constant term.
-16t²+32t+5
by comparing this equation to the standard form of the quadratic equation we get
a=-16 b=32 c=5
the time (t) needed for the ball to reach its maximum height using the axis of symmetry formula (x = -b/2a) for a parabola:
the time at which the ball reaches the maximum height using the axis of symmetry formula is (x=-b/2a)
t = -32/2×-16
t=1sec
by putting h(t) to zero and determining the time (t) when the ball hits the ground:
-16t²+32t+5=0
-16(t²+2t+5/16)=0
t²-2t-5/16=0
(t)²-2×1×t+(1)²-5/16=1
(t-1)²=21/16
t-1=√21/√16
t=1+4.58/4
t=1+1.145
t=2.245sec
