(4 pts) If a rock is thrown vertically upward from the surface of Mars with an initial velocity of 15m/sec

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I see you're in college math, so we'll solve this with calculus, since it's the easiest way anyway.

The position equation is

s(t)=-1.86t^2+15t  That equation will give us the height of the rock at ANY TIME during its travels. I could find the height at 2 seconds by plugging in a 2 for t; I could find the height at 12 seconds by plugging in a 12 for t, etc.

The first derivative of position is velocity:

v(t) = -3.72t + 15 and you stated that the rock will be at its max height when the velocity is 0, so we plug in a 0 for v(t):

0 = -3.72t + 15 and solve for t:\

-15 = -3.72t so

t = 4.03 seconds. This is how long it takes to get to its max height. Knowing that, we can plug 4.03 seconds into the position equation to find the height at 4.03 seconds:

s(4.03) = -1.86(4.03)² + 15(4.03) so

s(4.03) = 30.2 meters.

Calculus is amazing. Much easier than most methods to solve problems like this.

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

A. 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

m = rise/run

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-5- - 4)/(1-9)

m = (-5+4)/(-8)

m = (-1)/(-8)

m = 1/8

Write the answer in scientific notation and in standard form.Round to the appropriate number of significant digits.
Aleks [24]

Hey there, the answer is C.

After multiplying, you will get .37278. However, it's asking you to consider the significant figure of 3 so you'll have to round it to .373. C has that only option
