The function a(t)=t^(1/2)−t^(−1/2) m/s^2 represents the acceleration of a particle moving along a horizontal axis. At time t=0,

its velocity is equal to (4/3)m/s, and its position is equal to (-4/15) m.
Part A: Find the velocity function v(t) of the particle.

Part B: Find the position function s(t) of the particle.

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

a(t)=t^(1/2)−t^(−1/2)

We integrate to find the velocity

v(t) = integral t^(1/2)−t^(−1/2) dt

     = t ^ (1/2 +1)         t ^ (-1/2 +1)

          ------------   -    -----------------  + c  where c is the constant of integration

              3/2                   1/2

v(t) = 2/3 t^ 3/2  - 2 t^ 1/2 +c

We find c by letting t=0 since we know the velocity is 4/3 when t=0

v(0) = 2/3 0^ 3/2  - 2 0^ 1/2 +c = 4/3

       0+c =4/3

       c = 4/3

v(t) = 2/3 t^ 3/2  - 2 t^ 1/2 +4/3

To find the position function we need to integrate the velocity

p(t) = integral 2/3 t^ 3/2  - 2 t^ 1/2 +4/3 dt

     2/3 t ^ (3/2 +1)        2 t ^ (1/2 +1)           4/3t

          ------------   -    -----------------  + ------------- + c  

              5/2                   3/2                    1

p(t) =  4/15 t^ 5/2 - 4/3t ^ 3/2 + 4/3t +c

We find c by letting t=0 since we know the position is -4/15 when t=0

p(0) =  4/15 0^ 5/2 - 4/3 0 ^ 3/2 + 4/3*0 +c = -4/15

         0 +c = -4/15

            c = -4/15

p(t) =  4/15 t^ 5/2 - 4/3t ^ 3/2 + 4/3t -4/15

Answer:

v(t) = ⅔(t^1.5) - 2(t^0.5) + 4/3

s(t) = (4/15)(t^2.5) - (4/3)(t^1.5) + (4/3)t - 4/15

Step-by-step explanation

a(t) = t^½ - t^-½

Integrate for v(t)

(+1 to the power, divide by the new power)

v(t) = ⅔(t^3/2) - 2(t^½)n+ c

At t = 0, v = 4/3

4/3 = 0 + 0 + c

v(t) = ⅔(t^1.5) - 2(t^0.5) + 4/3

Integrate for s(t)

s(t) = (⅔)(⅖)(t^5/2) - 2(2/3)(t^3/2) + (4/3)t + c

s(t) = (4/15)(t^2.5) - (4/3)(t^1.5) + (4/3)t + c

At t = 0, s = -4/15

-4/15 = 0 - 0 + 0 + c

c = -4/15

s(t) = (4/15)(t^2.5) - (4/3)(t^1.5) + (4/3)t - 4/15

The sum of the unknown number and 22
divided by the same unknown number . . . . . . .  (z + 22) / z

You said that quotient is 12.              (z + 22) / z  =  12

Multiply each side by 'z' :                  (z + 22)       =  12 z

Subtract 'z' from each side:                      22        =  11 z

Divide each side by  11 :                           2         =      z .

New York City is located about 40˚ north of the equator. If Earth's radius is about 4000 miles, approximately how many miles sou
qwelly [4]

Answer:

The answer is "2793 miles"

Step-by-step explanation:

In this firstly we convert degrees to radians, which can be defined as follows:

\to \theta =\frac{40^{\circ} \times \pi }{180^{\circ}}

       =\frac{ 2\pi  }{9}

Now calculating the distance:

=\frac{2\pi }{9} \times  4000\\\\= \frac{8000 \pi }{9}

=\frac{8000\times 3.14 }{9}\\\\ = \frac{25120}{9}\\\\=2793 \ miles

leva [86]

Answer:

h(x) =  3(x - 5)^2 + 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = 3x^2 + 8

Shifting 5 units to the right gives:

3(x - 5)^2 + 8

Now 2 units down :

3(x - 5)^2 + 8 - 2

= 3(x - 5)^2 + 6.
