Algebra.Com's Answer #485155 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! determine the maximum height the ball reaches if thrown on Earth. \n" ); document.write( "h(t)=25t-.5*t^2 \n" ); document.write( "gravitational acceleration on Earth is 9.8m/s^2. \n" ); document.write( "If you use 9.8m/sec^2, then \n" ); document.write( "h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 25t, not .5 or 5 \n" ); document.write( "-------- \n" ); document.write( "Max ht is at the vertex of the parabola. \n" ); document.write( "t = -b/2a = -25/-9.8 \n" ); document.write( "t =~ 2.551 seconds \n" ); document.write( "h(2.551) =~31.888 meters \n" ); document.write( "----------- \n" ); document.write( "slove the same thing but on the moon too. \n" ); document.write( "-------- \n" ); document.write( "gravitational acceleration on the moon is 1.6m/s^2 \n" ); document.write( "You do that one. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
