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.

Answer:

x < 3

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 7 < 5

8pm to 2am, or 8am to 2pm, either way, Carla would've worked for 6 hours.

6*$13=$78

-----------

Carla would earn $78 if she were to clean for 6 hours.

Albertson's found that the demand for Coke products varies inversely as the price of the product. When the price of a Coke produ
romanna [79]

Answer:

859

Step-by-step explanation:

The demand for Coke products varies inversely as the price of Cole products.

Mathematically:

D α 1/p

Where D = demand, p = price of coke product

D = k/p

Where k = constant of proportionality.

Let us find k.

k = D * p

When Demand, D, is 1250, price, p, is $2.75:

=> k = 1250 * 2.75

k = $3437.5

Now, when price, p, is $4, the demand will be:

D = 3437.5/4

D = 859.375 = 859 (rounding to whole number)

The demand for the product is 859 when the price is $4.
