The flight of a football 2020-05-06
Michael pose la question :
Football is thrown from a 10-yard line. It reaches its highest height of 20 yards. It lands on the 50-yard line after 2 seconds. What is the equation of the parabola that models this throw? I really need help as I've been on this for the longest amount of time.

A penny is thrown from the top of a building 2018-03-16
Zoraida pose la question :
A penny is thrown from the top of a 26.7-meter building and hits the ground 3.39 seconds after it was thrown. The penny reached its maximum height above the ground 0.89 seconds after it was thrown.

a. Define a quadratic function, h, that expresses the height of the penny above the ground (measured in meters) as a function of the number of seconds elapsed since the penny was thrown, t. b. What is the maximum height of the penny above the ground?

Uniform acceleration 2011-12-06
Android pose la question :
At a certain instant, two cars A and B are 2000 ft apart. At this instant, car A is traveling at 15 miles/hr. and accelerating at 3 ft/s^2 while B is moving towards A at 30 miles/hr. and an acceleration of 2 ft/s^2.

Find the ff:
a.) The possible time of their collusion in minutes.
b.) The distance in ft. each has traveled before collusion.

Time with Non-Uniform Motion 2008-07-21
jenina pose la question :
An unmarked police car, travelling a constant 95km/h, is passed by a speeder travelling 145km/h. precisely 1.00s after the speed passes, the policeman steps on the accelerator. If the police car’s acceleration is 2.00m/s², how much time elapses after the police car is passed until it overtakes the speeder (assumed moving at constant speed)?

Throwing a ball on the moon 2008-05-21
leria pose la question :
equation for motion of moon is h=2.67t^2 + vt + s equation for earth h=-16t + vt + s

Suppose you are on an outpost on the moon and Jan is back on Earth. Both people toss a ball from a height of 96 feet with an initial velocity of 16 feet per second. How much longer will your ball stay in motion on the moon than Jan's on the earth?

Math Central,

I'm having a difficult time understanding which numbers to plug into the formula.

At what value of t is the maximum acceleration? 2008-04-25
Mary pose la question :
Velocity of a function (which is the first derivative of its position) is defined over the interval 0 to 12 using the following piecewise function: v(t)=-1 from 0 to 4, v(t)=x-5 from (4 to 8 and v(t)=-x+11 from (8 to 12. At what value of t is the maximum acceleration?

Two points moving on a straight line 2008-03-06
laura pose la question :
Particle A travels at constant speed of 1.0ms-1 in straight line, passing particle B, at which time particle B beings traveling with constant acceleration of 0.2ms-2 until reaching Particle A.
What equations represent the displacement of particle A and particle B measure from the point they first pass?
How long does it take for particle B to catch up with particle A?
What is the speed of particle B when reaching particle A?
What distance have both particles traveled from where they first pass to where they meet again?
Calculate the displacement of both particle A and B at 2 second intervals between t=0s and t=12s?

How far from the corner will the police catch the car? 2008-01-27
Joel pose la question :
A car is going down the road at a speed of 90km/h in a 50km/h zone. As the car passes a corner, a police cruiser sitting there notices it. Five seconds later the cruiser begins accelerating at 5.0m/s squared. Assuming that he is able to maintain this acceleration, how far from the corner will the police catch the car? How fast will the cruiser be going?

Constantly accelerated motion 2007-10-29
Priyanka pose la question :
A, B and C are three points lying in that order on a straight line. A body is projected from B towards A with speed 3 m/s. The body experiences an acceleration of 1 m/s^2 towards C. If BC =20 m, find the time taken to reach C and the distance travelled by the body from the moment of projection until it reaches C.

How long does she have to get out of the way? 2007-02-23
Sharon pose la question :
How do I solve this? The height h (in feet) of an object that is dropped from the height of s feet is given by the formula h = s - 16t^2 , where t is the time the object has been falling. A 6 foot tall woman on a sidewalk looks directly overhead and sees a window washer drop a bottle from the 6 story. How long does she have to get out of the way? Round to the nearest tenth. (A story is 12 feet.)

A person jumps from the roof of a house 2007-02-13
Jessie pose la question :
A person jumps from the roof of a house 3.9m high. When he strikes the ground below, he bends his knees so that the torso decelerates over an approximate distance of 0.70m. If the mass of his torso (excluding legs) is 42kg, find a) his velocity just before his feet strike the ground , and b) the average force exerted on his torso by his legs during deceleration.

Please provide calculations and answers for comparison.

Velocity and acceleration 2005-10-27
Candace pose la question :
When taking the integral of the position function, you get the velocity function, and the same for velocity to acceleration. So when you do each of these, you get a function. But when you integrate on a graph, you get an area under a curve. The area is un units squared- where do the units go when you make it an equation? How can a function be an area?

A good rule of thumb when driving 2002-06-13
Lisa pose la question :
A good rule of thumb when driving is that you should be about one car length away from the car in front of you for every 10 miles per hour that you are travelling. Suppose you follow this rule perfectly (so you are exactly the correct distance away). You are waiting at a stop light with your front bumper just touching the car in front of you. The light turns green and the car in front accelerates at a constant rate "r". Calculate how you should accelerate in order to follow the rule.

A jogger 2001-03-12
Bill pose la question :
At time t=0 a jogger is running at a velocity of 300 meters per minute. The jogger is slowing down with a negative acceleration that is directly propotional to time t. This brings the jogger to a stop in 10 minutes.

a) write an expression for the velocity of the jogger at time t.

b) what is the total distance traveled by the jogger in that 10-minute interval.
