An object is launched at 19.6 m/s from a height of 58.8 m. The equation for the height (h) in terms of time (t) is given by h(t)

= -4.9t2 +19.6t + 58.8. What is the object's maximum height?

H(t) = Ho +Vot - gt^2/2

Vo = 19.6 m/s
Ho = 58.8 m
g = 9.8 m/s^2

H(t) = 58.8 + 19.6t -9.8t^2/2 = 58.8 + 19.6t - 4.9t^2

Maximun height is at the vertex of the parabole

To find the vertex, first find the roots.

58.8 + 19.6t - 4.9t^2 = 0

Divide by 4.9

12 + 4t - t^2 = 0

Change sign and reorder

t^2 - 4t -12 = 0 

Factor

(t - 6)(t + 2) =0 ==> t = 6 and t = -2.

The vertex is in the mid point between both roots

Find H(t) for: t = [6 - 2]/2 =4/2 = 2

 Find H(t) for t = 2

H(6) = 58.8 + 19.6(2) - 4.9(2)^2 = 78.4

Answer: the maximum height is 78.4 m

I need to simplify this complex fraction
vovangra [49]

I see two ways to do it.

First, you have to understand that when you see a 'complex fraction' like this, the top number is a numerator, and the two bottom numbers are both denominators.

Way-1:

Take the top fraction . . . 2/2 .  That's equal to 1 . So the whole thing is <em>1/3</em>.

Way-2:

Multiply the bottom two denominators.  Then the whole thing is 2/(2·3) .  That's the same thing as  2/6 .  Simplify that, and you have <em>1/3</em> .
