Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Recall velocity - derivative of position
Velocity $v$ is the derivative of the position function $s(t)$. Given $s = 40t-0.8t^{2}$, using the power - rule $\frac{d}{dt}(at^{n})=nat^{n - 1}$, we have $v=\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(40t-0.8t^{2})=40 - 1.6t$ m/s.
Step2: Recall acceleration - derivative of velocity
Acceleration $a$ is the derivative of the velocity function $v(t)$. Since $v = 40 - 1.6t$, then $a=\frac{dv}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(40 - 1.6t)=- 1.6$ m/s². The value of $a = 25$ in the given problem is incorrect.
Answer:
a. Velocity: $v = 40 - 1.6t$ m/s, Acceleration: $a=-1.6$ m/s² b. At the highest - point, $v = 0$. So, $40-1.6t = 0$. Solving for $t$ gives $t=\frac{40}{1.6}=25$ s. c. Substitute $t = 25$ s into the position function $s(t)$. $s(25)=40\times25-0.8\times25^{2}=1000 - 0.8\times625=1000 - 500 = 500$ m. d. First, the maximum height is $s_{max}=500$ m. Half of the maximum height is $s = 250$ m. So, $250=40t-0.8t^{2}$. Rearranging gives $0.8t^{2}-40t + 250 = 0$. Using the quadratic formula $t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$ for the quadratic equation $ax^{2}+bx + c = 0$ (here $a = 0.8$, $b=-40$, $c = 250$), $t=\frac{40\pm\sqrt{(-40)^{2}-4\times0.8\times250}}{2\times0.8}=\frac{40\pm\sqrt{1600 - 800}}{1.6}=\frac{40\pm\sqrt{800}}{1.6}=\frac{40\pm20\sqrt{2}}{1.6}=\frac{40\pm28.28}{1.6}$. We get $t_1=\frac{40 + 28.28}{1.6}\approx42.7$ s and $t_2=\frac{40 - 28.28}{1.6}\approx7.3$ s. e. The rock is aloft when $s(t)=0$. So, $40t-0.8t^{2}=0$. Factoring out $t$ gives $t(40 - 0.8t)=0$. We have $t = 0$ (initial time) and $40-0.8t=0$, which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which which
