Answer:

D. the distance and direction to the water fountain

Explanation:

To describe the position of a water fountain relative to where one is standing, the distance and direction to the water fountain must be known.

This quantity is known as the displacement.

  • Displacement is a vector quantity with both magnitude and direction.
  • To specify the magnitude of a displacement, we use the length of path and in this case the height or sometimes the distance.
  • The direction attribute distinguishes distance from displacement
  • The perfect quantity to solve this problem is the displacement and it specifies the distance of the path and the direction traveled.

The position of a car at time t is given by the function p(t)=t2 2t−4. What is the velocity when p(t)=11? assume t≥0
AysviL [449]

The velocity when function p(t)=11 is 8 .

According to the question

The position of a car at time t  represented by function :

p(t)=t^{2} +2t-4

Now,

When  function p(t) = 11 , t will be

p(t)=t^{2} +2t-4

11 = t²+2t-4

0 = t² + 2t - 15

or

t² +2t-15 = 0

t² +(5-3)t-15 = 0

t² +5t-3t-15 = 0

t(t+5)-3(t+5) = 0

(t-3)(t+5) = 0  

t = 3 , -5  

as t cannot be -ve as given ( t≥0)

so,

t = 3

Now,

the velocity when p(t)=11

As we know velocity = \frac{position}{time}

therefore to get the value of velocity from  function p(t)

we have to differentiate the function with respect to time

\frac{d(p(t))}{dt} =\frac{d}{dt} (t^{2} +2t-4)

v(t) = 2t + 2  

where v(t) = velocity at that time

as t = 3 for  p(t)=11  

so ,

v(t) = 2t + 2  

v(t) = 2*3 + 2  

v(t) = 8

Hence, the velocity when function p(t)=11 is 8 .

a diver on a board 7.5m above the water walks off the end with a horizontal velocity of 2.3 m/s when they hit the surface of the
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

2.846m

Explanation:

The diver is performing projectile motion.

To find x(final), we are going to use the equation x(final) = v(initial)*t + x(initial)

x(initial) = 0

x(final) = ?

v(initial) = 2.3 m/s

we don't know t

To find t we will use y(final) = 1/2*(-9.8)*t^2 + v(initial in the y dir.)*t + y(initial)

- 9.8 in the acceleration in the y dir.

y(final) = 0

y(initial) = 7.5

v(initial in the y dir.) = 0

If we solve for t we get: t = 1.237s

Now we have all the components to solve for x(final) in x(final) = v(initial)*t + x(initial)

x(final) = 2.3*1.237 + 0

x(final) = 2.846m
