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

A car interior is heated to 48 C by the sun What type of energy transfer?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Radiation heat energy transfer

Explanation:

The type of heat transfer from the Sun is radiation heat transfer, which is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic radiation

The distance of the Sun to the Earth is several million kilometers away, with the space between being composes of vacuum and the nuclear reaction in the Sun's core generates vast amount of electromagnetic radiation that is transferred all across the universe and reaches the Earth as visible light and radiant energy at the speed of light

The radiant energy transferred from the Sun heats up the Earth, including the car's interior.

a female vocalist with a soprano voice can sing as high as 1000 hz. given that the speed of sound is 345 m/s what is the wavelen
Neporo4naja [7]

0.345 m.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The wavelength is the distance that the wave travels in each cycle. The wave travels 345 meters in each second. Let the wavelength of this wave be \lambda. That's the distance the wave travels in one cycle.

The frequency of the sound wave is 1 000 Hz, meaning that there are 1 000 cycles in each second. The wave travels a distance of 1 000 wavelengths in one second. That would be a distance of 1,000\;\lambda.

From the speed of the wave, the wave travels 345 meters in one second. In other words,

1,000\;\lambda = 345.

\lambda = \dfrac{345}{1,000} = 0.345\;\text{m}.

To generalize:

\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f},

where

  • \lambda wavelength of the wave,
  • v the speed of the wave, and
  • f the frequency of the wave.
