Bingel [31]

Answer:

The rate of change of height with respect to time is -10.64 feet/sec

Explanation:

Given that,

There are three lines, so you can calculate three different values of the function at one time.

The function f(t) represents the height in feet of a ball thrown into the air, t seconds after it has been thrown.

Given table is,

Time t = 0, 1, 1,02

Function is, $F(t)=-3.053113177191196\times10^{-18},6.000000000000134, 6.41760000000015$

We need to calculate the initial height of ball

Using equation of motion

$h=h_{0}+ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Where, h₀ = initial height

u = initial velocity

t = time

g = acceleration due to gravity

At t = 0,

Put the value into the formula

$-3.053113177191196\times10^{-18}=h_{0}+0-0$

$h_{0}=-3.053113177191196\times10^{-18}$

We need to calculate the height of ball at t = 1

Using equation of motion

$h_{1}=h_{0}+u_{0}t-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Put the value in the equation

$6.000000000000134=-3.053113177191196\times10^{-18}+u-\dfrac{1}{2}\times32$

$6.000000000000134+3.053113177191196\times10^{-18}+16=u_{0}$

$u_{0}=22\ feet/s$

Velocity is the rate of change of height with respect to time

So, velocity at 1.02 sec is given

We need to calculate the height

Using equation of motion

$h=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

On differentiating w.r.to t

$h'(t)=u-\dfrac{1}{2}g(2t)$

Put the value into the formula

$h'(t)=22-\times32\times(1.02)$

$h'(t)=-10.64\ feet/sec$

Hence, The rate of change of height with respect to time is -10.64 feet/sec.

The terrestrial planets are made almost entirely of elements heavier than hydrogen and helium. According to modern science, wher

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

They were produced by stars that lived and died before our solar system was born.

Explanation:

According to what it's understood today, all elements heavier than hydrogen (including helium and excluding some that were created in laboratories) are created through nuclear fusion in the core of stars.

They start fusing hydrogen into helium, then as the star grows older helium is fused into beryllium and so on for all the periodic table.

So as far as science understands it today it's a literal truth that we are made of stars. (as almost everything else)

2. A truck speeds up from a velocity of 6 m/s to 14 m/s in 4 seconds. What is the trucks acceleration? SHOW YOUR WORK

zavuch27 [327]

As it is given here

initial speed is

$v_i = 6 m/s$

After 4 seconds the final speed is

$v_f = 14 m/s$

so here we can use the formula of acceleration using kinematics

$a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}$

$a = \frac{14 - 6}{4}$

$a = 2 m/s^2$

so here it will accelerate at 2 m/s^2 rate.

As it is given here

initial it starts from rest

$v_i = 0 m/s$

After 2.5 seconds the final speed is

$v_f = 15 m/s$

so here we can use the formula of acceleration using kinematics

$a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}$

$a = \frac{15 - 0}{2.5}$

$a = 6 m/s^2$

so here it will accelerate at 6 m/s^2 rate.

i think question is not correct as in first line it is saying about a bag of trash and then in next line it is asking for the position of Jumper and bridge.
