Answer: 1.4 seconds
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The equation is: h(t) = at² + v₀t + h₀ where
- a is the acceleration (in this case it is gravity)
- v₀ is the initial velocity
- h₀ is the initial height
Given:
- a = -9.81 (if it wasn't given in your textbook, you can look it up)
- v₀ = 12
- h₀ = 3
Since we are trying to find out when it lands on the ground, h(t) = 0
EQUATION: 0 = 9.81t² + 12t + 3
Use the quadratic equation to find the x-intercepts
a=-9.81, b=12, c=3
Note: Negative time (-0.2) is not valid
The image of the given scenario is attached below.
A right angled triangle is formed, with one angle equal to 27 degrees. The perpendicular side is 155 and we are to find the length of guy wire which makes the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.
Using the formula of sine, we can write:
Rounding to nearest whole number, the length of the guy wire that must be attached is 341 feet.
