The roof of the Westin Tower (officially called the Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel) in Atlanta is located at a height of 723 ft. Assume a stone is dropped from this roof. (Note: Round numerical answers to two decimal places, if necessary.)

Required:
a. Find the distance of the stone above the ground at any time t (before it hits the ground).
b. How long does it take the stone to reach the ground?
c. With what velocity does it reach the ground?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The stone takes approximately 6.704 second to reach the ground.

b) The stone takes approximately 6.704 second to reach the ground.

c) The stone hits the ground at a velocity of -215.695 meters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The stone experiments a free fall, which is a uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and in which effects from air friction and Earth's rotation are negliglble. Then, the vertical distance of the stone above the ground at any time [tex]t[/tex] is represented by the following model:

[tex]y = y_{o}+v_{o}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot g\cdot t^{2}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]y_{o}[/tex] - Initial height of the stone, measured in meters.

[tex]v_{o}[/tex] - Initial velocity of the stone, measured in meters per second.

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that [tex]y_{o} = 723\,ft[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 0\,\frac{ft}{s}[/tex] and [tex]g = -32.174\,\frac{ft}{s^{2}}[/tex], then the distance of the stone above the ground at any time [tex]t[/tex] is represented by the following model:

[tex]y = 723 -16.087\cdot t^{2}[/tex] (2)

b) If we know that [tex]y = 0[/tex], then the time taken by the stone to reach the ground is:

[tex]723-16.087\cdot t^{2} = 0[/tex]

[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{723}{16.087} }\,s[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 6.704\,s[/tex]

The stone takes approximately 6.704 second to reach the ground.

c) The function velocity is found by differentiating (2) once:

[tex]v = -32.174\cdot t[/tex] (3)

If we know that [tex]t \approx 6.704\,s[/tex], then the velocity when it hits the ground is:

[tex]v = -32.174\cdot (6.704)[/tex]

[tex]v = -215.695\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

The stone hits the ground at a velocity of -215.695 meters per second.

Kendra has an unlimited supply of unbreakable sticks of length 2, 4 and 6 inches. Using these sticks, how many non-congruent triangles can she make if each side is made with a whole stick

Answers

Answer:

Unlimited number of triangles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Unlimited number of triangles can be made because Kendra has unlimited supply of unbreakable sticks. If she has limited number of sticks suppose 90 sticks so she can be able to made 30 non-congruent triangles from these number of sticks so if the number is not known so we are unable to say about the number of triangles should be made from unlimited unbreakable sticks.

Find the values of a and b so that the linear system has the given solution.
Given Solution: (2, 1)
Equation 1: ax - by'= 4
Equation 2: bx - ay = 10

Answers

Answer:

The values are a=6, b=8

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations

We are given the system of equations:

ax - by = 4

bx - ay = 10

And it's known the solutions are: x=2, y=1.

Plugging in the solutions:

2a - b = 4      [1]

2b - a = 10      [2]

Now we have to solve the system above. Multiply [1] by 2:

4a - 2b = 8

Now we add with [2]:

3a = 18

a = 18/3 = 6

a = 6

From [2]:

2b - 6 = 10

2b = 16

b = 16/2 = 8

b = 8

The values are a=6, b=8

The recursive function, f(x), can be used to determine the number of minutes that he had read after a certain number of days, where x represents the number of days. f(1) = 28 f(x) = f(x - 1) + 8 Use the recursive function to find the number of minutes that Jeff read after 3 days of summer.​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  44 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given f(1) = 28.

Using the recursive formula ...

  f(2) = f(1) +8 = 28 +8 = 36

  f(3) = f(2) +8 = 36 +8 = 44

Jeff read 44 minutes after 3 days of summer.

to compound 50% solution in which proportion must 95% sol and 30% sol be mixed to make
500 ml

Answers

Answer:

4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of 95% sol = a ml and

the amount of 30% sol = b ml.

So, the total amount of the compound=a+b=500 ml

As the compound is 50% solution, so

95% of a + 30% of b= 50% of (a+b)

(95/100)a+(30/100)b=(50/100)(a+b) [from equation (i)]

95a + 30b = 50(a+b)

95(a/b)+30 = 50(a+b)/b [dividing both sides by b]

95(a/b)+30 = 50(a/b+1)

95(a/b)+30 = 50(a/b)+50

95(a/b)-50(a/b)=50-30

45(a/b)=20

a/b=20/45

a/b=4/9

Therefore, a:b=4:9

As a+b= 500 ml, so the amount of 95% sol = [tex]\frac {500}{13}\times 4=\frac{2000}{13}=153.85[/tex] ml

and the amount of 95% sol = [tex]\frac {500}{13}\times 9=\frac{4500}{13}=346.15[/tex] ml

Hence, the proportion of 95% sol and 30% sol to make a compound of 50% sol must be 4/9.
