Answer:
The rate of change of the distance between the helicopter and yourself (in ft/s) after 5 s is
ft/ sec
Explanation:
Given:
h(t) = 25 ft/sec
x(t) = 10 ft/ sec
h(5) = 25 ft/sec . 5 = 125 ft
x(5) = 10 ft/sec . 5 = 50 ft
Now we can calculate the distance between the person and the helicopter by using the Pythagorean theorem

Lets find the derivative of distance with respect to time

Substituting the values of h(t) and x(t) and simplifying we get,



=
=
ft / sec
Answer:
b. 84 minutes
Explanation:
= Centripetal acceleration = 9.81 m/s²
r = Radius of Earth = 6378.1 km
v = Velocity
Centripetal acceleration is given by

Time period is given by

The time period of Earth’s rotation would be 84.43835 minutes
