Answer: 42.49
Explanation:
To solve this, we need to keep in mind the following:
While the sphere hangs it is under the effect of gravity. It is creating a Angle of 90° taking the roof as a reference.
Gravity can be noted as a Acceleration Vector. The magnitud for Earth's Gravity is a constant: 9.81 
The acceleration of the Van will affect the sphere also, but this accelaration will be on the X-axis and perpendicular to the gravity. Because this two vectors are taking action under the sphere they will create a angle. This angle can be measured as a relation of the two magnitudes.
Tangent (∅) = Opossite Side / Adyacent Side
By trigonometry, we know the previous formula. This formula allows us to find the Tangent of a angle as a relation between the two perpendiculars magnitudes. In this case the Opossite Side will be the Gravity Accelaration, while the Adyancent Side is the Van's Acceleration.
(1) Tangent (∅) = Gravity's Acceleration (G) / Van's Acceleration (Va)
Searching for the Va in (1)
Va = G/Tan(∅)
Where ∅ in this case is equal to 13.0°
Va = 9.81
/ Tan(13.0°)
Va = 42.49
The vans acceleration need to be 42.49
to create an angle of 13° with the Van's Roof
Answer:
400ft. 32ft/s -32ft/s
Explanation:
In reality the gravitational acceleration is 9.81 so the quadratic coefficient of the function should be 9.81/2
Anyway for the sake of assumtion let us takes=160t-16t^2
ds/dt=160-32t=0
t=160/32= 5 seconds.
s=160*160/32-16*(160/32)^2= 400 mts
s=384 mts
160t-16t^2=384
i.e
16t^2-160t+384=0
t^2-10t+24=0
(t-6)(t-4)=0
t=[4,6]
we have to take t=4 because it is all the up i.e <5
velocity =v=ds/dt=160-32t
v=160-32*4=32 ft/sec still going up
for all the way down take t=6 whuch is >5
v=160-6*32=-32 ft/sec (falling down!!!)
