The highest point
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
From a top of 100-foot tower a ball is thrown with a velocity of 28 feet per second.
Consider the provided information that trajectory of soft ball is modelled by equation
Rewrite the equation as,
The steps to graph the equation are provided below,
Step 1: Press
Step 2: Enter the function
Step 3: Press the window
Step 3: Press the
The result obtained on screen is provided below,
The graph is a parabola that opens downward. The vertex of the graph represent the maximum point of the function.
With help of arrow key move to highest point of the graph which is same as vertex of the graph.
Therefore, highest point of trajectory is approximately at
Next with help of arrow key move to point on the graph where y coordinate is 0 that is range of trajectory as height is 0 at this point.
Therefore, range of trajectory is approximately at
Thus, the highest point

- Question 3 (5pt): A chemical reaction. In an elementary chemical reaction, single molecules of two reactants A and B form a molecule of the product C : ABC. The law of mass action states that the rate of reaction is proportional to the product of the concentrations of A and B: d[C] dt = k[A][B] (where k is a constant positive number). Thus, if the initial concentrations are [A] = = a moles/L and [B] = b moles/L we write x = [C], then we have (E): dx dt = k(ax)(b-x) 1 (a) Write the differential equation (E) with separate variables, i.e. of the form f(x)dx = g(t)dt.

Below is the graph y f(t) of the annual harvest (assumed continuous) in kg/year from my cranapple orchard t years after planting. The trees take about 25 years to get established, and from that point on, for the next 25 years, they give a fairly good yield. But after 50 years, age and disease are taking their toll, and the annual yield is falling off. 40 35 30 。 ៣៩ ថា8 8 8 8 6 25 20 15 10 y 5 0 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 The orchard problem is this: when should the orchard be cut down and re- planted, thus starting the cycle again? What you want to do is to maximize your average harvest per year over a full cycle. Of course there are costs to cutting the orchard down and replanting, but it turns out that we can ignore these. The first cost is the time it takes to cut the trees down and replant but we assume that this can effectively be done in a week, and the loss of time is negligible. Secondly there is the cost of the labour to cut…arrow_forwardnd ave a ction and ave an 48. The domain of f y=f'(x) x 1 2 (= x<0 x<0 = f(x) possible.
