Answer: p(t) = (-16 ft/s^2)*t^2 + (57.4 ft/s)*t

Step-by-step explanation:

We can suppose that the only force acting on the object is the gravitational force, then the acceleration of the object will be equal to the gravitational acceleration.

Then we can write:

a(t) = -32 ft/s^2

Where the negative sign is because this acceleration is downwards.

Now, to get the vertical velocity of the object, we need to integrate over time to get:

v(t) = (-32 ft/s^2)*t + v0

where t represents time in seconds and v0 is the constant of integration, and in this case, is the initial vertical velocity.

In this case, the initial velocity is 57.4 ft/s upwards, then the velocity equation is:

v(t) = (-32 ft/s^2)*t + 57.4 ft/s

To get the position equation we need to integrate over time again, to get:

p(t) = (1/2)*(-32 ft/s^2)*t^2 + (57.4 ft/s)*t + p0

Where p0 is the initial height of the object, as it was launched from the ground, then the initial position is p0 = 0ft.

then the position equation (that is the function that represents the height of the object as a function over time) is:

p(t) = (1/2)*(-32 ft/s^2)*t^2 + (57.4 ft/s)*t

p(t) = (-16 ft/s^2)*t^2 + (57.4 ft/s)*t

What is the missing length?
skad [1K]

Answer:

6.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is given by

A = 1/2 (b1+b2) * h  where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the bases

108.6 = 1/2 ( 12+p) *12

108.6 = 6 (12+p)

Divide each side by 6

108.6 /6 = 12+p

18.1 = 12+p

Subtract 12 from each side

18.1-12 = 12+p-12

6.1 = p

What percent of 150 is 162
Novay_Z [31]
To find a percentage of a number, you divide by that number.
So to find what percent of 150 162 is, you divide 162 by 150
162 ÷ 150 = 1.08
Now, to find the percentage, we take the decimal and move the point two places to the right.
1.08 = 108%
162 is 108% of 150.
