Question
A bird is flying due east, its distance from a tall building is given by
x(t)= 32.0 + (11.1 m/s)t - (0.0350)t^3
what is the instantenous velocity when t=8.00?
i have tried this and have gotten 8.86 in which the program tells me that is incorrect...

- A pilot is in his plane with the intention of flying to Nunavut. From the current location, Nunavut is [N 9.0W]. The flight tracker estimates the distance from Toronto to Nunavut is approximate 3.0x103km. The plane hasthe capability to fly at an airspeed of 890 km/hr. The pilot aims the plane at a heading [N], and lands in Nunavutdirectly. If the flight takes 3.33 hrs to complete: a. What is the velocity of the plane relative to the Earth? b.

- A ball is thrown off the top of a 30m cliff with horizontal velocity of 10 m/s. How far from the base of the cliff does the ball land? Express answer in meters.arrow_forwardBob has just finished climbing a sheer cliff above a level beach and wants to figure out how high he climbed. All he has to use is a baseball, a stopwatch, and a friend on the ground below with a long measuring tape. Bob is a pitcher and knows that the fastest he can throw the ball is about vo = 33.7 m/s. Bob starts the stopwatch as he throws the ball, with no way to measure the ball's initial trajectory, and watches carefully. The ball rises and then falls, and after t₁ = 0.710 s the ball is once again level with Bob. Bob cannot see well enough to time when the ball hits the ground. Bob's friend then measures that the ball hit the ground x = 123 m from the base of the cliff. How high above the beach was the ball when it was thrown? initial height: X 1₁ marrow_forwardYour bow can fire arrows at 70 ??. You shoot an arrow straight up into the air.
