The quadratic function h(t)=-16.1t^2 + 150 models a balls height, in feet, over time, in seconds, after it is dropped from a 15

katrin [286]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: The first graphic representation.

We are given a quadratic equation, meaning that it could be two possible solutions for the exercise, however, we are talking about time, so we have to consider only the obtained positive values.

Let's make the equation equal to 0 in order to find the values of "t"

$h(t)=-16.1t^2 + 150\\0=-16.1t^2 + 150\\16.1t^2=150\\t^2=\frac{150}{16.1}=9.32\\t=+-\sqrt{9.32}=+-3.05\\t1=3.05\\t2=-305$

So, discarding the negative value, we can use the possitive value to find the correct graphic representation.

To find the correct graphic representation we must take into consideration the following:

- We must remember that the sign of the coefficient of the quadratic term (t^2) will define if the parabola opens downward or upward.

From the given quadratic (or parabola) equation we have:

$a=-1\\b=0\\c=150$

So, since the coefficient of the quadratic term is negative, the parabola opens downward.

- Since we are looking for a graphic that represents the change in height over time, we need to look for a graphic that shows only positive values for the x-axis (time)

- We are looking for a parabola which y-axis intercept is equal to 150.

Therefore, the graphic representation of the quadratic function that models a ball's height over time is the first graphic representation.

Have a nice day!

Using polar coordinates, evaluate the integral which gives the area which lies in the first quadrant below the line y=5 and betw

vfiekz [6]

First, complete the square in the equation for the second circle to determine its center and radius:

x ² - 10x + y ² = 0

x ² - 10x + 25 + y ² = 25

(x - 5)² + y ² = 5²

So the second circle is centered at (5, 0) with radius 5, while the first circle is centered at the origin with radius √100 = 10.

Now convert each equation into polar coordinates, using

x = r cos(θ)

y = r sin(θ)

Then

x ² + y ² = 100 → r ² = 100 → r = 10

x ² - 10x + y ² = 0 → r ² - 10 r cos(θ) = 0 → r = 10 cos(θ)

y = 5 → r sin(θ) = 5 → r = 5 csc(θ)

See the attached graphic for a plot of the circles and line as well as the bounded region between them. The second circle is tangent to the larger one at the point (10, 0), and is also tangent to y = 5 at the point (0, 5).

Split up the region at 3 angles θ₁, θ₂, and θ₃, which denote the angles θ at which the curves intersect. They are

θ₁ = 0 … … … by solving 10 = 10 cos(θ)

θ₂ = π/6 … … by solving 10 = 5 csc(θ)

θ₃ = 5π/6 … the second solution to 10 = 5 csc(θ)

Then the area of the region is given by a sum of integrals:

$\displaystyle \frac12\left(\left\{\int_0^{\frac\pi6}+\int_{\frac{5\pi}6}^{2\pi}\right\}\left(10^2-(10\cos(\theta))^2\right)\,\mathrm d\theta+\int_{\frac\pi6}^{\frac{5\pi}6}\left((5\csc(\theta))^2-(10\cos(\theta))^2\right)\,\mathrm d\theta\right)$

$=\displaystyle 50\left\{\int_0^{\frac\pi6}+\int_{\frac{5\pi}6}^{2\pi}\right\} \sin^2(\theta)\,\mathrm d\theta+\frac12\int_{\frac\pi6}^{\frac{5\pi}6}\left(25\csc^2(\theta) - 100\cos^2(\theta)\right)\,\mathrm d\theta$

To compute the integrals, use the following identities:

sin²(θ) = (1 - cos(2θ)) / 2

cos²(θ) = (1 + cos(2θ)) / 2

and recall that

d(cot(θ))/dθ = -csc²(θ)

You should end up with an area of

$=\displaystyle25\left(\left\{\int_0^{\frac\pi6}+\int_{\frac{5\pi}6}^{2\pi}\right\}(1-\cos(2\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta-\int_{\frac\pi6}^{\frac{5\pi}6}(1+\cos(2\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta\right)+\frac{25}2\int_{\frac\pi6}^{\frac{5\pi}6}\csc^2(\theta)\,\mathrm d\theta$

$=\boxed{25\sqrt3+\dfrac{125\pi}3}$

We can verify this geometrically:

• the area of the larger circle is 100π

• the area of the smaller circle is 25π

• the area of the circular segment, i.e. the part of the larger circle that is bounded below by the line y = 5, has area 100π/3 - 25√3

Hence the area of the region of interest is

100π - 25π - (100π/3 - 25√3) = 125π/3 + 25√3

as expected.
