This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A student dropped a textbook from the top floor of his dorm and it fell according to the formula s(t) = -16t² + 8√t, where t is the time in seconds and s(t) is the distance in feet from the top of the building.

(a) Write a formula for the average velocity of the ball for t near 4.

(b) Find the average velocity for the time interval beginning when t = 4 with duration 1 seconds, 0.5 seconds, and 0.05 seconds

(c) What is your estimate for the instantaneous velocity of the ball at t = 4

Answer:

a)

Average velocity, (Vavg)  of the ball for t near 4.

Vavg = [s(4) - s(0)] / (4 - 0)

Where s(4) = -16 × 4² + 8 × √4= - 240 m

s(0) = -16 × 0 + 8 * 0 = 0

b)

duration = 1 sec

Vavg = [s(5) - s(4)] / (5 - 4)

s(5) = -16 × 52 + 8 × √5 = - 382 m

s(4) = -16 × 42 + 8  √4 = - 240 m

Vavg = (-382 - (-240)) / (5 - 4)

Vavg = - 142.1 m/s

duration = 0.5 sec

Vavg = [s(4.5) - s(4)] / (4.5 - 4)

s(4.5) = -16 × 4.52 + 8 × √4.5 = - 307 m

s(4) = -16 × 42 + 8 × √4 = - 240 m

Vavg = (-307 - (-240)) / (4.5 - 4)

Vavg= - 134.1 m/s

duration = 0.05 sec

Vavg = [s(4.05) - s(4)] / (4.05 - 4)

s(4.05) = -16 × 4.052 + 8 × √4.05 = - 246 m

s(4) = -16 × 42 + 8 × √4 = - 240 m

Vavg = (-246 - (-240)) / (4.05 - 4)

Vavg= - 126.8 m/s

c)

Instantaneous velocity, v = ds/dt

= - 16 × 2 × t + 8 ×× (0.5 / √t )

= - 32 × t + 4/√t

ds/dt at t = 4 is,

v = - 32 × 4 + 4 / √4

= - 126 m/s

A 110 kg ice hockey player skates at 3.0 m/s toward a railing at the edge of the ice and then stops himself by grasping the rail
disa [49]

Answer

given,

mass of ice hockey player = 110 Kg

initial speed of the skate = 3 m/s

final speed of the skate = 0 m/s

distance of the center of mass, m = 30 cm = 0.3 m

a) Change in kinetic energy

    \Delta KE = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2

    \Delta KE = \dfrac{1}{2}m(0)^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}\times 110 \times 3^2

    \Delta KE = - 495\ J

b) Average force must he exerted on the railing

     using work energy theorem

      W = Δ KE

      F .d  = -495

      F x 0.3  = -495

      F = -1650 N

the average force exerted on the railing is equal to 1650 N.

(b) Find the position, velocity, and acceleration of the mass at time t = 5π/6.
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Solution 
x(t) = 8 cos t, x(5π/6)= 8 cos(<span>5π/6)
</span>cos(5π/6)=cos(3π/6 + 2π/6 )=cos(π/3 +π/2)= - sin π/3  (cos (x+<span>π/2)= -sinx)
</span>x(t) = -8sin <span>π/3 = - 4 .sqrt3
</span>v(t) = -8sint = -8sin (π/3 +<span>π/2)= -8 cosπ/3 </span>(sin (x+π/2)= cosx)
v(t) =<span> -8 cosπ/3 = -8/2= - 4 
</span>a(5π/6) = - 8cost = -(- sin π/3)= 4 .<span>sqrt3
</span>a(5π/6) =  4 .<span>sqrt3</span>

an athlete whirls a 7.00 kg hammer tied to the end of a 1.3 m chain in a horizontal circle the hammer moves at the rate of 1.0 r
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The answer to your question is a = 1.3 m/s²

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is the motion of a body that transverse a circular path.

Data

mass = 7 kg

radius = r = 1.3 m

angular rate = w = 1.0 rev/s

centripetal acceleration = a = ?

Formula

a = rw²

Substitution

a = (1.3)(1)²

Simplification and result

a = 1.3 m/s²

What happens to ar object in free fall?​
Inessa05 [86]
Energy from the gravitational potential store in converted to kinetic energy. Air friction acts against the object, dissipating some energy as heat or sound. The object will continuously accelerate until the acceleration is equal to the air friction acting against it. This is when it reaches terminal velocity
