(a)
To graph: The function for the velocity of the object when the air resistance is neglected where an object is thrown upwards at a velocity of 500 feet per second.
(b)
To calculate: The position function of the object and the maximum height it attainswhere an object is thrown upwards at a velocity of 500 feet per second.
(c)
To calculate: The velocity function when air resistance is factored in and the equation is
(d)
To graph: The velocity function obtained in part (c) with the value of k as 0.001 and to determine the time at which the maximum height is obtained.
(e)
To calculate: The approximate value of the integral
(f)
The reason behind the results in parts (b) and (c), the effect of air resistance on the maximum height.

- can you explain why the answer is 1/3arrow_forwardThe position of a particle that moves along the x-axis is defined by x = - 3t^2 + 12^t - 6 f, where t is in seconds. For the time interval t = 0 to t = 3 s, (1) plot the position, velocity, and acceleration as functions of time; (2) calculate the distance traveled; and (3) determine the displacement of the particleshow the graph and write the solution with a penarrow_forwardThe position of a particle that moves along the x-axis is defined by x = - 3t^2 + 12^t - 6 f, where t is in seconds.
