Vertical Free Fall Motion

The height s and vertical velocity v of an object in free fall are given by s(t) = -½ gt 2 + v

0 t + s

0 and v(t) = gt + v

0

Where t is time (in seconds), g

≈32 ft/sec 2 ≈9.8m/sec 2 is the acceleration due to gravity, v

0 of the object, and s o is the initial vertical velocity is its initial height.

Example

Page 184: Number 61 a) s

0

= 83 ft; v

0

=92 ft/sec h

 s(t) = -½ (32) t 2 + 92 t + 83 = -16 t 2 + 92 t +83

92

2.875

k

 

16(2.875)

2   

215.25

So maximum height is 215.25 ft.

b) s(t) = 0 (use quadratic formula)

6.543 sec c) v(t) = -32 t + 92 v (6.543) = -32(6.543) + 92 = -117.371 ft/sec

Example

Number 59 a) Revenue = quantity

 price

R(x) = (26,000 – 1,000x)(0.50 + 0.05x)

= 13,000 +800x – 50x 2 b) Graph it so you can see the max and x-intercept c) h = -800/(2

-50) = 8

So Revenue is maximized when x = 8

Price: 0.50 + 0.05(8)= $0.90

Revenue : 13,000 + 800(8) – 50(8) 2 = $16,200
