question 162

Multiple Choice

Solve.
-Ron throws a ball straight up with an initial speed of 70 feet per second from a height of 3 feet. Find parametric equations that describe the motion of the ball as a function of time. How long is the ball in the air? When is the ball at its maximum height? What is the maximum height of the ball?

• A) \(x = 0\) and \(y = - 16 t ^ { 2 } + 40 t + 6\)
• \(5.284 \mathrm { sec } , 1.25 \mathrm { sec }\)
• 25 feet
• B) \(x = 0\) and \(y = - 16 t ^ { 2 } + 40 t + 6\)
• \(2.34 \mathrm { sec } , 1.25 \mathrm { sec }\),
• \(5.99\) feet
• C)\(\begin{array}{l}
• x=0 \text { and } y=-16 t^{2}+40 t+6 \\
• 4.679 \mathrm{sec}, 1.25 \mathrm{sec} \\
• 181.21 \text { feet }
• \end{array}\)
• D) \(x = 0\) and \(y = - 16 t ^ { 2 } + 40 t + 6\)
• \(2.642 \mathrm { sec } , 1.25 \mathrm { sec }\)
• \(181.21\) feet
• 31 feet
