A professor uses a video camera to record the motion of an object falling from a height of 250 meters. The function f(x) = –5x2

+ 250 can be used to represent the approximate height of the object off the ground after x seconds. Which is the best estimate for the amount of time elapsed when the object is 120 meters off the ground?
4 seconds
5 seconds
6 seconds
7 seconds

Answer:

The answer is approximately 5.09 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

f(x) = -5x^2 + 250

To find the elapsed time, x, set the equation equal to 120 and solve for x:

-5x^2 + 250 = 120

-5x^2 = -130

x^2 = -130/-5 = 26

x = Sqrt(26) = 5.09 seconds.

Which equation is the inverse of y = 2x2 – 8?​
natita [175]

The inverse of the function is y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}

Explanation:

To find the inverse of the equation y=2x^{2} -8, we need to interchange the variables x and y for the variables y and x.

Thus, the equation becomes

x=2y^{2} -8

Now, we shall find the value of y.

Now, adding 8 to both sides of the equation, we have,

x+8=2y^{2}

Interchanging the sides,

2y^{2} =x+8

Dividing by 2 on both sides,

y^{2} =\frac{x+8}{2}

Taking square root on both sides,

y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}

Thus, the inverse of the function is y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}

Set up a double integral for calculating the flux of the vector field F⃗ (x,y,z)=xi⃗ +yj⃗ through the open-ended circular cylind
katrin [286]

Parameterize the cylinder (call it S) by

\vec s(\theta,z)=\sqrt8\cos\theta\,\vec\imath+\sqrt8\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath+z\,\vec k

with 0\le\theta\le2\pi and 0\le z\le9. Then

\vec F(x(\theta,z),y(\theta,z),z(\theta,z))=\sqrt8\cos\theta\,\vec\imath+\sqrt8\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath

Take the normal vector to S to be

\vec s_\theta\times\vec s_z=\sqrt8\cos\theta\,\vec\imath+\sqrt8\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath

Then the flux of \vec F across S is

\displaystyle\iint_S\vec F(x,y,z)\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^9\vec F(x(\theta,z),y(\theta,z),z(\theta,z))\cdot(\vec s_\theta\times\vec s_z)\,\mathrm dz\,\mathrm d\theta

=\displaystyle\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^98(\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta)\,\mathrm dz\,\mathrm d\theta=\boxed{144\pi}
