That's true. The give-away is "observation ... in the real world". That's what "field reports" are.
The part I'm not so sure about is those "entific findings".
Answer:
400ft. 32ft/s -32ft/s
Explanation:
In reality the gravitational acceleration is 9.81 so the quadratic coefficient of the function should be 9.81/2
Anyway for the sake of assumtion let us takes=160t-16t^2
ds/dt=160-32t=0
t=160/32= 5 seconds.
s=160*160/32-16*(160/32)^2= 400 mts
s=384 mts
160t-16t^2=384
i.e
16t^2-160t+384=0
t^2-10t+24=0
(t-6)(t-4)=0
t=[4,6]
we have to take t=4 because it is all the up i.e <5
velocity =v=ds/dt=160-32t
v=160-32*4=32 ft/sec still going up
for all the way down take t=6 whuch is >5
v=160-6*32=-32 ft/sec (falling down!!!)
Answer:
h=15.27m
Explanation:
Since at maximum height the vertical velocity must be null it's better to use the formula:
We will use this formula for the vertical direction, choosing the upward direction as the positive one, so we have:
or
which for our values is:
