Question
A football player kicks a ball at an angle of 30 from the ground with an initial velocity of 64 feet per second. Its height t seconds later is h(t) = 32t 16t2. (a) Graph the height of the ball as a function of the time. (b) Find v(t), the velocity of the ball at time t. (c) Find v(1), and explain what is happening to the ball at this time. What is the height of the ball at this time?
Solution
The first step in solving 3 problem number 46 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A football player kicks a ball at an angle of 30 from the ground with an initial velocity of 64 feet per second. Its height t seconds later is h(t) = 32t 16t2. (a) Graph the height of the ball as a function of the time. (b) Find v(t), the velocity of the ball at time t. (c) Find v(1), and explain what is happening to the ball at this time. What is the height of the ball at this time?
