- Distance, Speed, and Time A boardwalk is parallel to and 210 ft inland from a straight shoreline. A sandy beach lies between the boardwalk and the shoreline. A man is standing on the boardwalk, exactly 750 ft across the sand from his beach umbrella, which is right at the shoreline. The man walks 4 ft/s on the boardwalk and 2 ft/s on the sand. How far should he walk on the boardwalk before veering off onto the sand if he wishes to reach his umbrella in exactly 4 min 45 s?arrow_forwardAirplane Speed A man flies a small airplane from Fargo to Bismarck. North Dakota-a distance of 180 mi. Because is flying into a headwind, the trip takes him 2 h. On way back, the wind is still blowing at the same speed, so the return trip takes only 1h 12 min. What is his speed in still air, and how fast is the wind blowing?arrow_forwardDistance and time Anthony leaves Kingstown at 2:00 PM and drives to Queenville, 160 mi distant, at 45mi/h .At 2:15 PM. Helen leaves Queensville and drives to Kingstown at 40 mi/h . At what time do they pass each other on the road?arrow_forward
- Bouncing Ball A ball is dropped from a height of 80 ft. The elasticity of this ball is such that it rebounds three-fourths of the distance it has fallen. How high does the ball rebound on the fifth bounce? Find a formula for how high the ball rebounds on the nth bounce.arrow_forwardAlexanders Formula One interesting problem in the study of dinosaurs is to determine from their tracks how fast they ran. The scientist R. McNeil Alexander developed a formula giving the velocity of any running animal in terms of its stride length and the height of its hip above the ground. The stride length of dinosaur can be measured from successive prints of the same foot, and the hip height roughly the leg length can be estimated on the basis of the size of a footprint, so Alexanders formula gives a way of estimating from dinosaur tracks how fast the dinosaur was running. See Figure 2.45. If the velocity v is measured in meters per second, and the stride length s and hip height h are measured in meters, then Alexanders formula is v=0.78s1.67h1.17. For comparison, a length of 1 meter is 39.37inches, and a velocity of 1 meter per second is about 2.2milesperhour. First, we study animals with varying stride lengths, but all with a hip height of 2meters so h=2 i. Find the formula for the velocity v as a function of the stride length s. ii. Make a graph of v versus s. Include stride lengths from 2to10meters. iii. What happens to the velocity as the stride length increases? Explain your answer in practical terms. iv. Some dinosaur tracks show a stride length of 3meters, and a scientist estimates that the hip height of the dinosaur was 2meters. How fast was the dinosaur running?arrow_forwardEnlarging a Field A farmer has a rectangular cow pasture with width 100 ft. and length 180 ft. An increase the number of requires the farmer to increase the area of her pasture. She has two options: Option 1: Increase the length of the field. 0ption 2: Increase the width at the field. It costs $10 per foot to install new fence. Moving the old fence costs $6 per linear foot of fence to be moved. (a) For each option, find a formula for A, the area gained, in terms of the cost C. (b) Complete the table for the area gained in terms of the cost for each option. (c) If the farmer has $1200 for this project, which option gives her the greatest gain in area for her money? What if she had $2000 for the project?arrow_forward
- Falling-Body Problems Suppose an object t dropped from a height h0 above the ground. Then its height after t seconds is given by h=16t2+h0 , where h ¡s measured in feet. Use this information Lo solve the problem.
