While on the golf course last weekend Marc hit into the rough landing the ball behind a tall tree. His best option was to get it

high enough to get over the tree and hopefully come down in the fairway for his next shot. So with a mighty swing he hit the ball into the air and was surprised to see the ball hit near the top of a 300 foot tall tower that he had not noticed. The formula for this shot is: h(x)= -16x^2+120 where h is the height of the ball and x is the number of seconds the ball is in the air.
Question 1. How high did Marc actually hit the ball?

Later during that same golf outing, Marc decided to show off by trying to hit the green in one shot. So with his macho swing, he said he hit the green as the ball hung in the air for 15 seconds. The formula for this shot is: h(x)= -16x^2+200x

Question 2. How long did the ball actually hang in the air?

Answer:

120 ft at 0 seconds

Question 2: 12.5 seconds in the air

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x)= -16x^2+120

We want to find the vertex

The vertex is at

h = -b/2a = 0/-32 = 0

The maximum is at 0

h(0) = 0+120 = 120

it occurs at 0 seconds and a height of 120 ft

h(x)= -16x^2+200x

We want to find the zeros of the function

0= -16x^2+200x

Factor out  -8x

0 = -8x(2x -25)

Using the zero product property

-8x=0       2x-25 =0

x =0       2x =25

               x=25/2

The ball starts on the ground   at 0 seconds and lands at 12.5 seconds

Evaluate ∫SF⃗ ⋅dA⃗ , where F⃗ =(bx/a)i⃗ +(ay/b)j⃗ and S is the elliptic cylinder oriented away from the z-axis, and given by x2/
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Therefore surface integral is \pi(a^2+b^2)c-0-0=\pi(a^2+b^2)c.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is,

\vec{F}=\frac{bx}{a}\uvec{i}+\frac{ay}{b}\uvec{j}

To find,

\int\int_{S}\vec{F}dS  

where S=A=surfece of elliptic cylinder we have to apply Divergence theorem so that,

\int\int_{S}\vec{F}dS

=\int\int\int_V\nabla.\vec{F}dV

=\int\int\int_V(\frac{b}{a}+\frac{a}{b})dV  

=\frac{a^2+b^2}{ab}\int\int\int_VdV

=\frac{a^2+b^2}{ab}\times \textit{Volume of the elliptic cylinder}

=\frac{a^2+b^2}{ab}\times \pi ab\times 2c=\pi (a^2+b^2)c

  • If unit vector \cap{n} directed in positive (outward) direction then z=c and,

\int\int_{S_1}\vex{F}.dS_1=\int\int_{S_1} . dA      

=\int\int_{S_1}.dA=0

  • If unit vector \cap{n} directed in negative (inward) direction then z=-c and,

\int\int_{S_2}\vex{F}.dS_2=\int\int_{S_2}. -dA      

=\int\int_{S_2}. -dA=0

Therefore surface integral without unit vector of the surface is,

\pi(a^2+b^2)c-0-0=\pi(a^2+b^2)c

"Nathan takes 42 minutes to thread a distance of 4.5 miles on a threadmill. Determine the average distance covered in one minute
Viefleur [7K]

Solution:

we are given that

Nathan takes 42 minutes to thread a distance of 4.5 miles on a threadmill.

we have been asked to find the average distance covered in one minute.

Using the  concept of unity we can write

Since Nathan takes 42 minutes to cover a distance of 4.5 miles.

So in 1 minute Nathan will cover a distance of =\frac{4.5}{42} =1.07142miles

Hence avearge distance covered in one minute is 1.1 miles.

Angle KLM and angle MLN are a linear pair. Ray LR is to be added to the diagram so that it is opposite ray LM. Which is true abo
lesya [120]
Angles RLN and MLK would be vertical angles.
Right. Vertical angles are formed when their sides share the same lines. RL shares the same line with LM and NL shares the same line with LK (see the attached diagram), so that means both angles form a vertical pair.

Angles RLN and MLN would be vertical angles.
Wrong.
They are linear pairs, because they are adjacent and supplementary. Adjacent angles share a side – in this case, LN. Supplementary angles sum 180°, which you can see is right because the other sides (ML and RL) are in the same line. RLN and MLN sum the same as the size of RLM, which is a line, so it’s 180°.  <span>

Angles RLN and KLM would be a linear pair. </span>
Wrong.
They would be a vertical pair (see definition of vertical pair in the first option). RL is opposed to LM and LN is opposed to KL.

Angles RLN and KLN would be a linear pair.
Wrong.
KLN is actually a line, so it’s actually 180°, so it can’t be a linear pair with KLN. Linear pairs sum 180°, which is impossible because KLN itself is already 180°, so any sum will throw a higher number.
