A translation means moving something up down or left/right

Lets use that definition to figure the answer out

A). A spinning Wheel

No, because it is spinning, not moving up or down left/right

B). a child swinging on a swing

No because the child is in a swinging state of motion, not left or right, or up or down.

C). The blade of a kitchen blender

No, because it is in a spinning motion, which we ruled out to be incorrect previously.

Therefore the correct choice is

<h2>D) A sliding hockey puck</h2>

Why?

A sliding puck is always moving left or right, view the hockey field as an XY plane, and it is being translated left & right.

Answer:

After 9 seconds the object reaches ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

We equation of motion given as h = -16t²+128t+144,

We need to find in how many seconds will the object hit the ground,

That is we need to find time when h = 0

0 = -16t²+128t+144

16t²-128t-144= 0

$t=\frac{-(-128)\pm \sqrt{(-128)^2-4\times 16\times (-144)}}{2\times 16}\\\\t=\frac{128\pm \sqrt{25600}}{32}\\\\t=\frac{128\pm 160}{32}\\\\t=9s\texttt{ or }t=-1s$

Negative time is not possible, hence after 9 seconds the object reaches ground.

Explanation:

Let us define first our directional convention. Anything pointing up or to the right is considered positive and anything pointing down or to the left is considered negative. Now let's look at the components $F_{x}$ and $F_{y}$ :
