Question
I am doing a free-fall experiment for Physics and I need to make a position vs. time graph using the average value of release heights that I obtained. Do you know how I would be able to find the values for the time and position graph? The average value of release height is 1.9720736 m.

- Tutorial Exercise A soccer ball is kicked from 2 feet above the ground. The height, h, in feet of the ball after t seconds is given by the function h = -16t2 + 64t + 2. (a) Graph the function. (b) At what time(s) is the height of the ball 50 feet? Step 1 Create a table of values for the function. [AlgUns.0386] The height function is h = -16t2 + 64t + 2.

In 1907, he set a new Boston Marathon record, beating all of the previous decade's champions by almost 5 minutes! If he ran the 39.2 km course in 2 hours, 24 minutes and 24 seconds, what was his speed?

- An engineer is testing how quickly a car accelerates from rest. The velocity V is measured in miles per hour, as a function of time t, in seconds, since the car is at rest. See the table below. What is the slope for the linear function modeling velocity as a function of time, V=, and what would the formula be for the velocity at time 0, V(0) Time (t) Velocity (V) 2.0 28.9 2.5 35.0 3.0 41.1 3.5 47.2arrow_forwardYou start out by driving 91 miles south in 2 hours and 21 minutes, and then you stop and park for a while.

The ball is 30 feet off the ground after 1 second and 22 feet off the ground after 2 seconds. The height h above ground is a quadratic function of the time t after the ball is thrown. a) What is the equation that fits this model? b) How long after the ball is thrown will it reach its maximum height? 2 decimals c) What is the maximum height the ball reaches?

What was the acceleration, in meters per second squared, during time interval t1, assuming the car started from rest and moved with a constant acceleration? What was the car's instantaneous velocity in the horizontal direction, in meters per second, when it began braking?
