The question describes the motion of a ball and asks about the motion of a rocket. There is no explanation for that. It goes directly into my "dumb question" file.

<h3>Given</h3>

The equation of ballistic motion is

... h(t) = -1/2·g·t² + v₀·t + h₀

where v₀ and h₀ are the initial upward velocity and height, respectively.

A rocket's motion is modeled by

... h(t) = -4.9t² + 18t + 14 . . . . . where h is in meters and t is in seconds

<h3>Find</h3>

<u>Part A</u>: v₀

<u>Part B</u>: h₀

<u>Part C</u>: (1) changes if h were measured in feet instead of meters. (2) the gravity coefficient in ft/s².

<h3>Solution</h3>

<u>Parts A and B</u>: You have correctly identified the coefficients in the equation that tell you the initial velocity (18 m/s) and height (14 m).

<u>Part C</u>: The relationship between feet and meters is

... 0.3048 m = 1 ft

Changing the units from m/s and m/s² to ft/s and ft/s² means we need to multiply the equation's coefficients by the appropriate conversion factor. Starting with the first coefficient ...

... (-1/2)g = -4.9 m/s²

... g = 9.8 m/s² = (9.8/0.3048) ft/s² ≈ 32.15 ft/s²

The new initial velocity is

... 18 m/s = 18/0.3048 ft/s ≈ 59.01 ft/s

The new initial height is

... 14 m = 14/0.3048 ft ≈ 45.93 ft

If we round all coefficients to 2 significant digits, the motion equation for units of feet and seconds is

... h(t) = -16t² + 59t + 46

(1) All of the coefficients in the function change to appropriate units. The new equation is ...

... h(t) = -16t² + 59t + 46

(2) The gravity coefficient is approximately 32 ft/s², so shows up in the equation as a coefficient of -16.

You want to put $8,000 in a simple interest account. It has a 2% annual interest rate. How long must you invest that money to ea
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

2.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest= P×R×T÷100

T= 100I÷P×R

T= 100×400÷8000×2

T= 40000÷16000

T= 5÷2

T= 2.5 years

Can someone help me to answer this please.
Volgvan

All it's asking is:  How many cubic inches are there in 22 gallons ? And it already GAVE us the conversion factor !

The conversion factor is . . . . .  1 gallon = 231 cubic inches

Multiply each side by 22:  22 gallons = 22 x (231 cubic inches)

22 x 231 = 5,082

22 gallons = 5,082 cubic inches

If you empty a full 22-gallon tank out through that flow meter, the meter  will register 5,082 cubic inches when the tank is empty.
