Activity 1: How far can a soccer player kick a soccer ball down field? Through the application of a linear function and a quadratic function and ignoring wind and air resistance one can describe the path of a soccer ball. These functions depend on two elements that are within the control of the player: velocity of the kick (v k ) and angle of the kick (?). A skilled high school soccer player can kick a soccer ball at speeds up to 50 to 60 mi/h, while a veteran professional soccer player can kick the soccer ball up to 80 mi/h. Vectors Gravity The vectors identified in the triangle describe the initial velocity of the soccer ball as the combination of a vertical and horizontal velocity. The constant g represents the acceleration of any object due to Earth’s gravitational pull. The value of g near Earth’s surface is about ?32 ft/s2 . v x = v k cos ? & v y = v k sin ?

1. Use the information above to calculate the horizontal and vertical velocities of a ball kicked at a 35° angle with an initial velocity of 60 mi/h. Convert the velocities to ft/s. (2 pts) Project 2 368 MTHH 039 2. The equations x(t) = v x t and y(t) = v y t + 0.5 gt2 describe the x- and y- coordinate of a soccer ball function of time.

Use the first equation given in Question 2 to calculate how far the ball will travel horizontally from its original position. (2 pts)

I want to know the answer of the last question that I write bold and italic. Let me know the answer of this questions!!!

Mimi can run around a quarter-mile track in 150 seconds. Judy can run around the same track in 120 seconds. Suppose they start running in the same direction from the same place at the same time. How long will it take for Judy to “lap” (catch up to) Mimi three times? How far will each woman have run? Hint: Find each woman’s speed (distance/time).

Please show work and explain how you got this answer :)

John has been hired to design an exciting carnival ride. Tiff, the carnival owner, has decided to create the world's greatest Ferris wheel. Tiff isn't into math; she simply has a vision and has told John these constraints on her dream: (i) the wheel should rotate counterclockwise with an angular speed of a = 13 RPM; (ii) the linear speed of a rider should be 200 mph; (iii) the lowest point on the ride should be c = 5 feet above the level ground. The wheel starts turning when Tiff is at the location P, which makes an angle θ with the horizontal, as pictured. It takes her 1.5 seconds to reach the top of the ride. (Impose coordinates with units in feet.)

(a) Impose a coordinate system with the origin at the center of the wheel. Find the coordinates T(t) = (x(t), y(t)) of Tiff at time t seconds after she starts the ride. (Round values to three decimal places as needed.) x(t) = y(t) =

(b) Tiff becomes a human missile after 6 seconds on the ride. Find Tiff's coordinates the instant she becomes a human missile. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (x(6), y(6)) =

(c) Find the equation of the tangential line along which Tiff travels the instant she becomes a human missile. ketch a picture indicating this line and her initial direction of motion along it when the seat detaches.

Marvin was standing on the roof of his house throwing water balloons onto people on the sidewalk below. (Do not try this at home.) When he let the balloon go the balloon was 45 cubits off of the ground. He learned through trial and error that in order to hit someone on the ground he had to have the balloon reach a maximum height of 55 cubits off of the ground 2 seconds after he threw it. Let h left parenthesis t right parenthesis be the height of the water balloon in cubits t seconds after it was thrown. Assume that height is a quadratic function of time. (Note: A cubit is a measurement of distance. Since we are not using feet or meters you cannot use standard physics formulas to solve this.) a) Find a formula for h left parenthesis t right parenthesis . b) Find the time when the balloon hits the ground. Answer this question using a complete sentence in terms of this problem.

A plane delivers two types of cargo between two destinations. Each crate of cargo I is 3 cubic feet in volume and 137 pounds in weight, and earns $30 in revenue. Each crate of cargo II is 3 cubic feet in volume and 274 pounds in weight, and earns $45 in revenue. The plane has available at most 270 cubic feet and 14,248 pounds for the crates. Finally, at least twice the number of crates of I as II must be shipped. Find the number of crates of each cargo to ship in order to maximize revenue. Find the maximum revenue.

Assign the coordinates to each point on an Affine plane of order 3.

Consider a rectangular coordinate system in the plane, in the usual sense of analytic geometry. Every point has a pair of coordinates (x,y). For the purposes of this question, let us regard points as indistinguishable from the ordered pairs (x, y) that describe them. Thus every figure, that is, every set of points, becomes a collec- tion of ordered pairs of real numbers. Under what conditions, if any, do the following figures represent functions? (a) a triangle, (b) a single point, (c) a line, (d) a circle, (e) a semicircle, including the endpoints, (f) an ellipse. What, in general, is the geometric condition that a figure in the coordinate plane must satisfy to be a function? (Very rigorous arguments are not required - just give the idea intuitively for each).
