A person throws a baseball from height of 7 feet with an initial vertical velocity of 50 feet per second. Use the vertical motio

n model, h = -16t2 + vt +s, where y is the initial velocity in feet per second and s is the height in feet, to calculate the amount of time the baseball is in the air before it hits the ground. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary Time in air: _______ seconds​

Answer:

3.25 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

A person throws a baseball from height of 7 feet with an initial vertical velocity of 50 feet per second. The equation for his motion is as follows :

h=-16t^2+vt+s

Where

s is the height in feet

For the given condition, the equation becomes:

h=-16t^2+50t+7

When it hits the ground, h = 0

i.e.

-16t^2+50t+7=0

It is a quadratic equation, we find the value of t,

t = 3.25 seconds and t = -0.134 s

Neglecting negative value

Hence, for 3.25 seconds the baseball is in the air before it hits the ground.

If you wanted to estimate how much money a certain appliance costs you, how would you do it?
serious [3.7K]

Interesting question.

There are a number of factors that may attribute to the pricing of an item say quality of material, number of special features available, and certainly a common notion of brand value (e.g H&M vs GUCCI). Of course, it does not necessarily mean more face value = more expensive.

Typically, to estimate, I would check the brand and material component.

How do you know the earth is rotating on its axis
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Read below!

Explanation:

You can watch the sun wheel across the sky during the day, and the stars at night. Focus a telescope on any star besides the north star--especially southern stars--and you can watch them drift across your field of view.  

An alternative explanation is that all the stars are painted on (or holes in) some canopy that rotates around the earth. This explanation does not account for the motion of the "wanderers," or planets, as the Greeks called them, or for the path of the moon among the stars.  

As we know the stars are massive bodies of significant and varying distance to the earth, the notion they all swing around us in unison seems highly implausible
