On the planet Jupiter, a ball this thrown upward at a velocity at 10m/s. It's height, h(t) meters after t seconds is given by th

e equation h(t)=-12.5(t-0.4)^2+4.
a) what is the maximum height the ball reaches?


b) what was the height of the ball when it was released from the throwers hand?

Answer:

a) The maximum height that the ball reaches is 4 meters.

b) The height of the ball when it is released from thrower's hand is 2 meters.

c) The ball will take approximately 0.966 seconds to hit the surface of Jupiter.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let h(t) = -12.5\cdot (t-0.4)^{2}+4, where t and h(t) are the time and height, measured in seconds and meters. Since this equation is in vertex form, the maximum height corresponds to the value associated with the dependent variable (height). That is:

h(t) -4 = -12.5\cdot (t-0.4)^{2}

Hence, the maximum height that the ball reaches is 4 meters.

b) The height of the ball when the ball is released from thrower's hand is the height of the ball at t = 0\,s. Then, we evaluate the function:

h(0) = -12.5\cdot (0-0.4)^{2}+4

h(0) = 2\,m

The height of the ball when it is released from thrower's hand is 2 meters.

c) The instants when the ball hits the ground are those instants t so that h(t) = 0. Then:

-12.5\cdot (t-0.4)^{2}+4 = 0

-12.5\cdot (t^{2}-0.8\cdot t +0.16)+4 = 0

-12.5\cdot t^{2}+10\cdot t +2 = 0

By the Quadratic Formula we obtain the following roots:

t_{1} \approx 0.966\,s, t_{2}\approx -0.166\,s

Only the first root is physically reasonable, since time is a positive real variable.

The ball will take approximately 0.966 seconds to hit the surface of Jupiter.

iragen [17]

Answer: To find area of a rectangle, multiply its base (length) by its height (width). Plug in the base, 7 meters, and the height, 8 meters. So the area of Rectangle DFBE is 56 square meters.

Anyone? please help me I’m absolutely lost on this one here :,)
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for area of a square is length x width. The x represents the width and the 7x is just the width times 7. this means the length is 7 times the width, If the width is x, then the length is 7x
