Answer:

t=4s

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical displacement of an object in freefall is given by the next equation:

\Delta y=y_f-y_i=v_o_y t-\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Where:

y_f=Final\hspace{3}position\\y_i=Initial\hspace{3}position\\t=Time\\g=Standard\hspace{3}gravity\\v_o_y=Initial\hspace{3}velocity\hspace{3}in\hspace{3}y-axis

This equation can be reduced to the equation given by the problem since:

v_o_y=0\\y_f=0\\y_i=s=256\\g\approx 32ft/s^2

Hence:

-s=-\frac{1}{2} 32t^2

Solving for t:

t^2=\frac{256}{16} =16\\\\t=\sqrt{16} =\pm4s

Since a negative time wouldn't have sense, the answer is 4 seconds

Find 1722 divided by 6 then estimate to check if your answer is reasonable
Whitepunk [10]
When you divide 1722 by 6 you get 287 so it's not a repeating number so if you estimate 287 to 290 then you get 1740 so your answer is 287.

The first element in an arithmetic sequence is 2. Its twenty second is 14. Find the value of n so that a(n)=6
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

<h2>n = 8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the nth term of an arithmetic sequence to be Tn = a+(n-1)d

a = first term of the sequence

n = number of terms

d = common difference.

Given the first element a = 2 and 22nd to be 14

T22 = a+(22-1)d = 14

a+21d = 14

Substtuting a = 2 into the equation to get d

2+21d = 14

21d = 12

d = 12/21

d = 4/7

The nth term of the sequence given a = 2 and d = 4/7 will be expressed as;

Tn = 2+(n-1)4/7

Given Tn = 6

6 = 2+(n-1)4/7

6 = 2+4/7 n - 4/7

6-2+4/7 = 4/7 n

32/7=4/7 n

32 = 4n

n = 32/4

n = 8
