- The Skydiver Again When a skydiver jumps from an airplane, her downward velocity, n feet per second, before she opens her parachute is given by = 176 1 0.834t, where t is the number of seconds that have elapsed since she jumped from the airplane. We found earlier that the terminal velocity for the skydiver is 176 feet per second. How long does it take for her to reach 90 of terminal velocity?arrow_forwardBuilding a Quonset Hut Quonset huts were developed during World War II. They were temporary housing structures that could be assembled quickly and easily. A Quonset hut is shaped like a half cylinder. A manufacturer has 600square feet of material with which to build a Quonset hut. (a) The formula for the surface area of half a cylinder is S=r2+rl,where ris the radius and lis the length of the hut. Solve this equation for lwhen S=600. (b) The formula for the volume of the hut is V=12r2l. Write the volume Vof the Quonset hut as a polynomial function of r. (c) Use the function you wrote in part (b) to find the maximum volume of a Quonset hut with a surface area of 600square feet. What are the dimensions of the hut?arrow_forwardFalling-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. If a ball is dropped from 288 ft above the ground, how bug does it take to reach ground level?arrow_forward
- FaIIing-Body Problems Suppose an object ¡s dropped from a height h0 above the ground. Then its height after t second is given by h=16t2+ h0 , where h ¡s measured in feet. Use this information to solve the problem. A ball is dropped from the top of a building 96 ft tall. How long will it take to fall half the distance to ground level? How long will it take to fall to ground level?arrow_forwardKinetic Energy The kinetic energy E of an object can be calculated by the formula E=12mv2, where m is the mass and v is the velocity. Solve for m.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
