A ball is thrown vertically upward from the top of a building. The height (in meters) of the ball after t seconds is given by th

e function
s(t) = -(t-3)^2+ 14. Find the instantaneous velocity of the ball at t= 4 seconds by considering the average velocities over the intervals [3.5, 4],
[3.7.4]. [3.9,4]. [3.99, 4], [4, 4.01], [4, 4.1], [4, 4.3], and [4,4.5).

Answer:

  C.  -2.00 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

The average velocity on the interval [a, b] is found by ...

  m = (s(b) -s(a))/(b -a)

One end of the interval remains constant here, so we can define 'd' so that the interval is [4, 4+d]. Then the average velocity is ...

  m = (s(4 +d) -s(4))/((4 +d) -4)

  m = (s(4+d) -s(4))/d

The attached table shows the average velocity values on the intervals required by the problem statement. Respectively, they are ...

  -1.5 m/s, -1.7 m/s, -1.9 m/s, -1.99 m/s, 2.01 m/s, 2.1 m/s, 2.3 m/s, 2.5 m/s

We expect the instantaneous velocity at d=0 to be the average of the values at d=-0.01 and d=+0.01. We estimate the instantaneous velocity at t=4 seconds to be -2.00 m/s.

Note that WXYZ has vertices W(-1, 2), X(-5, 7), y(-1, -2), and Z (3, -7).
svp [43]

a. Slope of WZ = -2.25; Slope of WX = 5

b. WZ = √97; WX = √41

c. WXYZ is not a <em>rectangle, rhombus, nor a square</em>. We can conclude that: <em>D. WXYZ is none of these</em>.

<h3>Slope of a Segment</h3>

Slope = change in y/change in x

Given:

W(-1, 2), X(-5, 7), Y(-1, -2), and Z (3, -7)

a. Slope of WZ and slope of WX:

Slope of WZ = (-7 - 2)/(3 -(-1)) = -2.25

Slope of WX = (7 - 2)/(-1 -(-1)) = 5

b. Use distance formula, d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}, to find WZ and WX:

WZ = \sqrt{(3 - (-1))^2 + (-7 - 2)^2}\\\\\mathbf{WZ = \sqrt{97} }

WX = \sqrt{(-5 -(-1))^2 + (7 - 2)^2}\\\\\mathbf{WX = \sqrt{41} }

c. The quadrilateral WXYZ have adjacent sides that are not perpendicular to each other and have different slopes and different lengths, so therefore, WXYZ is not a rectangle, rhombus, nor a square. We can conclude that: <em>D. WXYZ is none of these</em>.

Answer:

The average speed of the athlete for the entire competition is approximately 21.23 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters of the athlete performance in the triathlon are;

The length the athlete swims = 750 m = 0.75 km

The time the athletes spends swimming = 15 minutes = 0.25 hours

The speed with which the athlete cycles = 40 km/hr.

The time the athletes spends while cycling = 30 minutes = 0.5 hours

The distance the athlete ran = 5 km

The average speed with which the athlete ran = 3 m/s = 10.8 km/hr.

The formula for average speed, s is Average speed = Total distance/(Total time)

The distance, ∑d, the athlete covered in the entire competition is given as follows;

∑d = 0.75 km + 0.5 hr. × 40 km/hr. + 5 km = 0.75 km + 20 km + 5 km = 25.75 km

The distance, ∑t, the athlete spends in the entire competition is given as follows;

∑t = 0.25 hr. + 0.5 hr. + 5 km/(10.8 km/hr.) = 0.25 hr. + 0.5 hr. + 0.463 hr. ≈ 1.213 hr.;

Therefore;

The average speed of the athlete for the entire competition, s = ∑d/∑t = 25.75 km/(1.213 hr.) ≈ 21.23 km/hr.
