A ball is thrown up in the air, and it's height (in feet) as a function of time (in seconds) can be written as h(t) = -16t2 + 32

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

1) Using properties of the quadratic equation:

Here the height equation is:

h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t + 6

We can see that the leading coefficient is negative, this means that the arms of the graph will open downwards.

Then, the vertex of the quadratic equation will be the maximum.

Remember that for a general quadratic equation:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = y

the x-value of the vertex is:

x = -b/2a

Then in our case, the vertex is at:

t = -32/(2*-16) = 1

The maximum height will be the height equation evaluated in this time:

h(1) = -16*1^2 + 32*1 + 6 = 22

The maximum height is 22ft

2) Second method, using physics.

We know that an object reaches its maximum height when the velocity is equal to zero (the velocity equal to zero means that, at this point, the object stops going upwards).

If the height equation is:

h(t) = -16*t^2 + 32*t + 6

the velocity equation is the first derivation of h(t)

Remember that for a function f(x) = a*x^n

we have that:

df(x)/dx = n*a*x^(n-1)

Then:

v(t) = dh(t)/dt = 2*(-16)*t + 32 + 0

v(t) = -32*t + 32

Now we need to find the value of t such that the velocity is equal to zero:

v(t) = 0 = -32*t + 32

32*t = 32

t = 32/32 = 1

So the maximum height is at t = 1

(same as before)

Now we just need to evaluate the height equation in t = 1:

h(1) = -16*1^2 + 32*1 + 6 = 22

The maximum height is 22ft

I'm assuming you're talking about the indefinite integral

$\displaystyle\int e^{-x^2/2}\,\mathrm dx$

and that your question is whether the substitution $u=\dfrac x{\sqrt2}$ would work. Well, let's check it out:

$u=\dfrac x{\sqrt2}\implies\mathrm du=\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\sqrt2}$
$\implies\displaystyle\int e^{-x^2/2}\,\mathrm dx=\sqrt2\int e^{-(\sqrt2\,u)^2/2}\,\mathrm du$
$=\displaystyle\sqrt2\int e^{-u^2}\,\mathrm du$

which essentially brings us to back to where we started. (The substitution only served to remove the scale factor in the exponent.)

What if we tried $u=\sqrt t$ next? Then $\mathrm du=\dfrac{\mathrm dt}{2\sqrt t}$ , giving

$=\displaystyle\frac1{\sqrt2}\int \frac{e^{-(\sqrt t)^2}}{\sqrt t}\,\mathrm dt=\frac1{\sqrt2}\int\frac{e^{-t}}{\sqrt t}\,\mathrm dt$

Next you may be tempted to try to integrate this by parts, but that will get you nowhere.

So how to deal with this integral? The answer lies in what's called the "error function" defined as

$\mathrm{erf}(x)=\displaystyle\frac2{\sqrt\pi}\int_0^xe^{-t^2}\,\mathrm dt$

By the fundamental theorem of calculus, taking the derivative of both sides yields

$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\mathrm{erf}(x)=\dfrac2{\sqrt\pi}e^{-x^2}$

and so the antiderivative would be

$\displaystyle\int e^{-x^2/2}\,\mathrm dx=\sqrt{\frac\pi2}\mathrm{erf}\left(\frac x{\sqrt2}\right)$

The takeaway here is that a new function (i.e. not some combination of simpler functions like regular exponential, logarithmic, periodic, or polynomial functions) is needed to capture the antiderivative.
