Answer:
The ball shall keep rising tills its velocity becomes zero. Let it rise to a height h feet from point of projection.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us take the point of projection of the ball as origin of the coordinate system, the upward direction as positive and down direction as negative.
Initial velocity u with which the ball is projected upwards = + 120 ft/s
Uniform acceleration a acting on the ball is to acceleration due to gravity = - 32 ft/s²
The ball shall keep rising tills its velocity becomes zero. Let it rise to a height h feet from point of projection.
Using the formula:
v² - u² = 2 a h,
where
u = initial velocity of the ball = +120 ft/s
v = final velocity of the ball at the highest point = 0 ft/s
a = uniform acceleration acting on the ball = -32 ft/s²
h = height attained
Substituting the values we get;
0² - 120² = 2 × (- 32) h
=> h = 120²/2 × 32 = 225 feet
The height of the ball from the ground at its highest point = 225 feet + 12 feet = 237 feet.
By definition, a polynomial is an expression with more than one term. That is a monomial. We have names for 2-termed polynomials (binomials) and 3-termed polynomials (trinomials), but that's where the naming stops and they all are called polynomials after that. Our degree is the same as the highest exponent. So our degree is a fifth degree. The leading coefficient is the number that starts out the whole polynomial AS LONG AS IT IS IN STANDARD FORM. If our polynomial started with the -4x^4, our leading coefficient would NOT be -4 since the highest degree'd term will always come first in standard form. Your choice for your answer is the first one given. Degree: 5 Leading Coefficient: -13.
