Jordan throws a ball from a cliff 12 feet above the ground with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second. In the following func

tions, h(t) represents the height of the ball above the ground, in feet, with respect to time, t, in seconds, after the ball was thrown. Which of the following functions models the amount of time the ball is in the air?
h(t)= -4(t-1)^2 +3
h(t)= -16(t-1)^2 -4
h(t)= -16(t-1)^2 +12
h(t)= -16(t-1)^2 +28

Answer:

Your answer will be the third function

Step-by-step explanation:

The base function you need to know is h(t)= 1/2at^2

Your acceleration in this problem is going to be gravity which they give to you, 32 feet per second squared. Since the ball is falling, it means it will have negative acceleration. Now you have the equation h(t)= -16t^2. The final step is to add the initial height from which the ball was dropped giving you: h(t)= -16t^2 +12

At 3pm, the length of the shadow of a thin vertical pole standing on level ground is the same as the height of the pole. A while
aliya0001 [1]

Answer: The height of the pole is 175.97 ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the pole is x cm,

Also, let the angle of elevation of the sun to the pole at 3 pm is \theta

Thus, by the question,

tan\theta = \frac{\text{ The height of the pole}}{\text{ The height of the shadow}}

\implies tan\theta = \frac{x}{x}    ( at 3pm the height of shadow = height of the pole)

\implies tan\theta = 1

\implies \theta = 45^{\circ}

Again, according to the question,

When the angle of elevation is   (\theta - 12^{\circ}),

The height of shadow = x + 95,

\implies tan(45-12)^{\circ}=\frac{x}{x+95}

\implies tan 33^{\circ}=\frac{x}{x+95}

\implies tan 33^{\circ}x + 95\times tan33^{\circ}=x

\implies tan 33^{\circ}x - x = - 95\times tan33^{\circ}

\implies -0.3505924068 x = - 61.6937213538

x=175.969930202\approx 175.97\text{ cm}

5. A yacht is cruising at 20 knots at bearing of 185° when a 15 knot wind starts to blow at a bearing of 290°. Find the directio
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

<em>Direction of the boat is 43.05° and the speed is 21.66 knot</em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

yacht speed = 20 knots

yacht bearing = 185° = 85°  below the negative horizontal x-axis

wind speed = 15 knots

wind bearing = 290° = 20° above the negative horizontal x-axis

we find the x and y components of the boat velocities

for yacht,

x component = -20 cos 85° = -1.74 knots

y component = -20 sin 85° = -19.92 knots

for the wind,

x component = -15 cos 20° = -14.09 knots

y component = 15 sin 20° = 5.13 knots

total x component  Vx = -1.74 + (-14.09) = -15.83 knots

total y component Vy =  -19.92 + 5.13 = -14.79 knots

Resultant speed of the boat = \sqrt{Vx^{2} + Vy^{2}  }

==> \sqrt{15.83^{2} + 14.79^{2}  } = <em>21.66 knot</em>

<em></em>

direction of boat = tan^{-1} \frac{Vy}{Vx}

==> tan^{-1} \frac{14.79}{15.83} = <em>43.05°</em>
