    I noticed a lot of people asking where the -16 comes from. This particular variation of the quadratic is a _physics_ formula, h(t) = -1/2 * g * t^2 + v0 * t + h0, where h(t) is height as a function of time, g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth (9.8 m/s^2 or 32 ft/s^2), v0 (pronounced "vee naught") is the initial upward velocity in feet per second, and h0 (pronounced "aych naught") is the initial height of the projectile above the ground. 32 * (-1/2) yields -16, which becomes the coefficient for the t^2 term. And yes, if you're on Earth (and using English units instead of metric), -16 will _always_ be the coefficient of that first term. I hope this helps for future viewers.

    isn't it faster to use the d= r.t formula? (distance = range(speed).time) We are given distance 50 and speed 20 ft/s, so it's 50=20t, now we just flip it to 50/20 = t and simplifying it its 5/2

    You didn't have to use the quadratic formula, as -5 and 5 multiply into 25 and 4 and 2 multiply into 8 and the sum of their product gives you -10, so you might as well write 0= (4x-5)(2x+5) and solve for the x values by setting them to 0 individually.

  • @larryreddell2974

    The equation is easy to follow, However - It would be nice to know where the -16t squared comes from. -16xsquared must be a standard but this problem doesn't explain where one can find such a (seemingly) constant value to plug into the equation. Is there a list or table somewhere with such information?

  • @Eggsec

    the answer has to be neg, you could already tell by the beginning of the prob, "A ball is shot into the air" by that the ball already the ball has some sort of the velocity when it reaches the edge of the building. now keep on mind they want to know how long it takes to hit the ground. well thats where the neg answer comes from bc it already trav at a x speed.
    to find a pos answer we first have to know at force/speed it was thrown up in the air. now the force its tricky bc depending on the force the ball could of travel upwards reaching x altitude, picked up x speed downward, and this is not taking in consideration the weight of the ball and so on blah blah.

    • @Eggsec
      @Eggsec 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      it said, it initial velocity is 20ft per sec, this is the velocity when it met at the edge of the building. the problem should of had started like, a ball is drop from the edge of the building....
