Question 616179
(1) {{{ h[y] = -16t^2 }}}
given:
{{{ h[y] = -3600 }}} ft
{{{ -3600 = -16t^2 }}}
{{{ t^2 = 225 }}}
{{{ t = 15 }}}
it takes 15 sec to hit ground
-----------
(2) {{{ d[x] = v*t }}}
given:
{{{ v = 330*5280*(1/3600) }}} mi/hr x ft/mi x hrs/sec
{{{ v = 484 }}} ft/sec
{{{ d[x] = 484*15 }}}
{{{ d[x] = 7260 }}}
The horizontal distance traveled is 7,260 ft ( more than a mile )
note: (1) and (2) are the parametric equations
