H.O.T. Focus on Higher Order Thinking 24. Critical Thinking When a batter hits a baseball, you can model the ball's height using a quadratic function that accounts for the ball's initial vertical velocity. However, once the ball reaches its maximum height, its vertical velocity is momentarily 0 feet per second, and you can use the model h(t) = h, – 16t² to find the ball's height h (in feet) at time t (in seconds) as it falls to the ground. a. Suppose a fly ball reaches a maximum height of 67 feet and an outfielder catches the ball 3 feet above the ground. How long after the ball begins to descend does the outfielder catch the ball? b. Can you determine (without writing or solving any equations) the total time the ball was in the air? Explain your reasoning and state any assumptions you make.

Hello please help me with physics questions: Part A: given a velocity versus time graph, what does the area u see the curve to a point tell us? 1) the distance travelled by the object to that point. 2) the objects speed to that point. 3).The objects velocity to that point. 4). The object acceleration to that point. Part B: given an acceleration versus time graph, what does the area under the curve to a point tell us? 1). The distance travelled by the object to that point. 2). The objects speed to that point. 3). The objects velocity to that point. 4). The objects acceleration to that point? part C: A ball rolling rapidly along a tabletop rolls off the edge and falls to the floor. At the exact instant that the rolling ball rolls off the edge of the table, a second ball is dropped from rest from the same height as the table . The rolling ball hits the floor ? 1). Before the falling ball hits the floor 2). at the same time as the falling ball hits the floor. 3). After the falling ball…

6. A train is moving with a constant speed. The train moves 60 meters for every 1.5 seconds that elapses. a. Assume that we get 40 by dividing 60 by 1.5. What is the name that is commonly given to a quantity represented by this number 40? b. To denote the quantity completely, what additional information must be given besides the number 40? c. How would you interpret the number 40 in this instance? Your answer should mention distance and time. d. Use your interpretation (not algebra) to find the distance the train moves in 2.5 seconds.
