If a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 65 ft/s, its height in feet after t seconds is given by

f(t)=65t−16t2 Find the average velocity for the time period beginning when t=2 and lasting (i) 0.5 seconds 61.5 (ii) 0.1 seconds 65.74 (iii) 0.01 seconds 65.98 (iii) 0.001 seconds 65.99 Based on the above results, guess what the instantaneous velocity of the ball is when t=2.

Answer:

a) v_{1}=\frac{(62.5-66)ft}{(2.5-2)s}=-7ft/s

v_{2}=\frac{(65.94-66)ft}{(2.1-2)s}=-0.6ft/s

v_{3}=\frac{(66.0084-66)ft}{(2.01-2)s}=0.84ft/s

v_{4}=\frac{(66.001-66)ft}{(2.001-2)s}=1ft/s

b) v=65-32(2)=1ft/s

Explanation:

From the exercise we got the ball's equation of position:

y=65t-16t^{2}

a) To find the average velocity at the given time we need to use the following formula:

v=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{t_{2}-t_{1}  }

Being said that, we need to find the ball's position at t=2, t=2.5, t=2.1, t=2.01, t=2.001

y_{t=2}=65(2)-16(2)^{2} =66ft

y_{t=2.5}=65(2.5)-16(2.5)^{2} =62.5ft

v_{1}=\frac{(62.5-66)ft}{(2.5-2)s}=-7ft/s

--

y_{t=2.1}=65(2.1)-16(2.1)^{2} =65.94ft

v_{2}=\frac{(65.94-66)ft}{(2.1-2)s}=-0.6ft/s

--

y_{t=2.01}=65(2.01)-16(2.01)^{2} =66.0084ft

v_{3}=\frac{(66.0084-66)ft}{(2.01-2)s}=0.84ft/s

--

y_{t=2.001}=65(2.001)-16(2.001)^{2} =66.001ft

v_{4}=\frac{(66.001-66)ft}{(2.001-2)s}=1ft/s

b) To find the instantaneous velocity we need to derivate the equation

v=\frac{df}{dt}=65-32t

v=65-32(2)=1ft/s

Two ships leave a harbor at the same time, traveling on courses that have an angle of 110∘ between them. If the first ship trave
Allushta [10]

Answer:

49.07 miles

Explanation:

Angle between two ships = 110° = θ

First ship speed = 22 mph

Second ship speed = 34 mph

Distance covered by first ship after 1.2 hours = 22×1.2 = 26.4 miles = b

Distance covered by second ship after 1.2 hours = 34×1.2 = 40.8 miles = c

Here the angle between the two sides of a triangle is 110° so from the law of cosines we get

a² = b²+c²-2bc cosθ

⇒a² = 26.4²+40.8²-2×26.4×40.8 cos110

⇒a² = 2408.4

⇒a = 49.07 miles
