Looking Up The constant
(We measure upward velocity
a. Use a formula to express the velocity
b. How many seconds after the toss does the rock reach the peak of its flight? (Hint: What is the velocity of the rock when it reaches its peak?)
c. How many seconds after the toss does the rock strike the ground? (Hint: How aces me time it takes for the rock to rise to its peak compare with the time it takes for it to fall hack to the ground?)

EBK FUNCTIONS AND CHANGE: A MODELING AP
- Skidding in a Curve A car is traveling on a curve that forms a circular arc. The force F needed to keep the car from skidding is jointly proportional to the weight w of the car and the square of its speed s and is inversely proportional to the radius r of the curve. a Write an equation that expresses this variation. b A car weighing 1600 lb travels around a curve at 60 mi/h. The next car to round this curve weighs 2500 lb and requires the same force as the first car to keep from skidding. How fast is the second car traveling?arrow_forwardRipples in a pond When a stone is thrown into the center of a pond, the ripples spread out in a circular pattern, moving at a rate of 3 feet per second. If the stone is dropped at a point (0,0) in the illustration, when will the ripple reach the seagull floating at the point (15,36)?arrow_forwardYOUR TURN Find the velocity and acceleration of the car if the distance in feet is given by s(t)=t33t224t+10, at time t in seconds. When is the car going forward or backing up? When is the car speeding up or slowing down?arrow_forward
- Doctors treated a patient at an emergency room from 2:00P.M. to 7:00P.M. The patient’s blood oxygen level L (in percent) during this time period can be modeled by L=0.270t2+3.59t+83.1,2t7 where t represents the time of day, with t=2 corresponding to 2:00P.M. Use the model to estimate the time (rounded to the nearest hour) when the patient’s blood oxygen level was 93 .arrow_forwardThe following problems review material we covered in Section 3.5. Linear Velocity A point moving on the circumference of a circle covers 5 feet every 20 seconds. Find the linear velocity of the point.arrow_forwardApplication of Newton's second law of motion EF = ma to a 0.5-kg object thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 4 m/s and adopting the sign convention that down is positive results in the following equation: mg - 2v = ma. What is the velocity v of the object as a function of t? Select the correct response: v = 2.45 - 6.45 exp (-4t) O v = 2.45 - 1.55 exp (-4t) O v = 2.45 + 1.55 exp (-4t) V = 2.45 + 6.45 exp (4t)arrow_forward
- A ball is thrown vertically up from the ground. If the positive direction is upward, then h= - 167 – 321 feet gives the height of the ball after t seconds. An observer is 20 feet from the point where the ball was thrown. Find the rate at which the distance between the ball and the observer changing after 2 seconds.
