Answer:

0.375 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

In simple terms, to find the time it took to reach the ground, we need to find t from the equation.

If we differentiate h with respect to t we will get the velocity with which the fireworks is moving at.

h(t) = - 16t^2 + 4t.\\dh/dt =-32t +4

We can now equate this to its velocity and solve for t

10 = -32t +4

t = 0.1875 <em>( time cannot be negative in value, so we ignore the negative sign)</em>

<em />

Therefore, the time it took the fireworks to reach the ground is = 2 x 0.1875= 0.375 seconds.

<em>(We need to account for the fact that the fireworks went up and came down)</em>

Question 12
zvonat [6]
Weird question xD

You have to use the Pythagorean theorem on this one.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
11^2 + h^2 = 12^2
121 + h^2 = 144
h^2 = 23
h = 4.79583
