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

what is the major cause of the earth’s magnetic field? the earth’s liquid outer core the earth’s liquid outer core the earth’s m
GaryK [48]

The earth's liquid outer core is the major cause of the earth’s magnetic field.

<h3>What is magnetic field?</h3>

The magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials is described by a magnetic field, a vector field. A force acting on a charge while it travels through a magnetic field is perpendicular to both the charge's motion and the magnetic field. The magnetic field of a permanent magnet attracts or repels other magnets as well as ferromagnetic elements like iron. A magnetic field that varies with location will also exert a force on a variety of non-magnetic materials by changing the velocity of those particles' outer electrons. Electric currents, like those utilised in electromagnets, and electric fields that change over time produce magnetic fields that surround magnetised things.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

0.657 seconds

Explanation:

speed of wave= wavelength / time period

so

time period= wavelength / speed

= 4.6/7

=0.657 sec
