How might engineers use tidal data when building a bridge or a dock?

Physics
1 answer:
kifflom [539]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Make sure the service portion of the structure stays above the highest probable water level.

2) Make sure the support structure in contact with the water can withstand the tidal flows

3) Consider whether the added restriction of the proposed structure will altar the height of, or water velocity contained in, the tidal exchanges.

4) Consider whether a dock needs to have mechanisms to compensate for large sea level changes.

If a ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 160 ft/s, then its height after t seconds is s = 160t − 16t2. (a) What
romanna [79]

Answer:

s = 400 ft

The maximum height reached by the ball is 400 ft

Explanation:

Given;

Initial vertical velocity v = 160 ft/s

Height function s = 160t - 16t^2 ......1

The maximum height is reached when the change in height with respect to time is zero.

ds/dt = 0

Differentiating the height function;

ds/dt = 160 - 32t = 0

160 - 32t = 0

Solving for t;

32t = 160

t = 160/32

t = 5 seconds

Therefore, the maximum height is at t = 5;

Substituting into equation 1 (the height function)

s = 160(5) - 16(5^2)

s = 800 - 400

s = 400 ft

The maximum height reached by the ball is 400 ft
