Guven f(t) = -16(t)2+48t
At time t = 1 second
Height of ball, f(1) = -16(1)2+48(1)
= -16+48 = 32
Therefore, height of ball after one second = 32 feet
Golf ball hits the ground f(t) = 0
f(t) = -16(t)2+48t = 0
-16t (t -3) = 0
-16t = 0 , (t-3) = 0
t=0, t=3
I.e., at t = 0 seconds, initially ball is on ground
And t = 3 seconds after hitting the ball, ball reaches ground.
The answers are,
(i) 32 feet
(ii) 3 seconds

Fill in the Blanks A golf ball is projected upward from ground level at an initial velocity of 112 ft/sec. The height of a projectile can be modeled by s(t) = -16t+ vot + So, where t is time in seconds, So is the initial height in feet, and Vo is the initial velocity in ft/sec. a. How high will the ball be after 2 sec? O feet b. What is the maximum height the ball reaches? O feet c....
If an object is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 64 ft/sec, its height after t sec is given by h = 64t -16t^2. Find the number of seconds the object is in the air before it hits the ground.
Problem 2. (25 points) A golfer hits a golf ball with an initial speed of 30 m/s at an angle of 35° with the ground. The ball flies over the level ground and lands at the same height from which it was hit. a) How long does it take for the ball to reach its highest point? b) What is the range of the ball? c) Find the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground. d) After...
If an object is projected upward with an initial velocity of 48 ft pe second from a height h of 160 ft, then its height t second after it is projected is defined by the equation h= -16t 2 + 48t + 160. How many seconds after it is projected will it hit the ground?
show work 4. Suppose a stone is launched vertically upward with initial velocity 32 ft/sec from a height of 48 ft above ground. After t seconds its height is given by s(t) = -16t2 + 32t + 48 At the time when the stone hits the ground it is moving with a speed of A. 32 ft/s B. 24 ft/s C. 64 ft/s D. 48 ft/s E. 96 ft/s
Two friends are playing golf. The first friend hits a golf ball on level ground with an initial speed of 36.5 m/s at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. (a) Assuming that the a ands at the same height from which it was hit, how far away from the golfer, in meters, does it land? Ignore air resistance. What constant acceleration equations will allow you to find the range, given the speed and angle? (Note that, depending on your...
A rock is thrown upward at an initial velocity of 16 ft/sec from a height of 96 feet above ground. How long will it take to hit ground?
18) A ball is thrown across a playing field from a height of 5 ft above the ground at an angle of 45° to the horizontalat a speed of 20 ft/s. It can be deduced fromphysical principles thatthe path of the ball is modeled by the function f(x) = - 32 x +x+5 400 a. At what horizontal distance xis the ball 7 ft high? b. At what horizontal distance x does the ball hit the ground?
in projectile motion problems where the projectile height h is modeled bythe equation h=-16t²+vt+s, where t is the time in seconds the objecthas been in the air, v is the initial vertical velocity in feet per second, and s isthe initial height in feet. The -16 coefficient in front of the t² term refers tothe effect of gravity on the object.A baseball field is next to a building that is 130 feet tall.A series of batters hit pitched balls into...
A rocket is fired upward from some initial distance above the ground. Its height in feet, h,above the ground, t seconds after it is fired, is given by h= -16t^2+32t+3584. What is the rocket's maximum height? ___ ft How long does it take for the rocket to reach its maximum height? t= ___sec After it is fired, the rocket reaches the ground at t= ___ sec.
