the rock will be at 11 meters from the ground level after 5.92 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The motion of the rock is a free-fall motion, since the rock is acted upon the force of gravity only. Therefore, it is a uniformly accelerated motion, so its position at time t is given by the equation:

y=h+ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

h = 23 m is the initial height

u = 27 m/s is the initial velocity, upward

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity, downward

t is the time

We want to find the time t at which the position of the rock is

y = 11 m

Substituting and re-arranging the equation, we find

11=23+27t-4.9t^2\\4.9t^2-27t-12=0

This is a second-order equation, which has solutions:

t=\frac{27\pm \sqrt{(-27)^2-4(4.9)(-12)}}{2(4.9)}=\frac{27\pm \sqrt{964.2}}{9.8}

So

t_1 = -0.41 s

t_2=5.92 s

The first solution is negative so we neglect it: therefore, the rock will be at 11 meters from the ground level after 5.92 seconds.

<h3>Answer: Radius</h3>

Let point A be the center of the circle. Point B is somewhere on the circle edge. The distance from A to B is equal to the radius. The radius is half the diameter which spans the whole circle and it goes through the center. The circumference is the curved distance around the whole circle's perimeter.

A student is using the completing the square method to transform the equation x2-10x+ 36 = 0 to the form (x-h) 2+k = 0. which st
andreev551 [17]
Obviously the Correct Step would give him the correct answer lol !

But, here he goes !!

( {x}^{2}  - 10x + 36)

= ( {x}^{2}  - 2(x)(5) +  {(5)}^{2} ) + 11

= (x - 5)^{2}  + 11

✓ So, h = 5 ; k = 11 would make him correct
