Quadratic Formula PART 2 • For an equation in STANDARD FORM a≠0, ax2 + b x + c
Find a quadratic equation Before we look at the answer, lets learn about the product and sum of roots
Physics Formulas Dropping an object h = final height (in feet) t = time (in seconds) h0 = s = initial height (in feet) Sometimes h0 is called s h = final height (in meters) t = time (in seconds) h0 =s = initial height (in meters)
Throwing an object v is the initial velocity. Downward is negative while upwards is positive.
Initial Velocity • Downward is negative while upwards is positive? Why is this? • Let’s look at the whole formula..
What does each part represent??? • We used the -16t2 for the falling object formula….. • -16t2 represents the distance the object falls over time, t, due to gravity • vt represents?? • The distance the object travels because it is thrown or moved by some other force. • So, what determines if v, the velocity is positive or negative? • We are looking at an object falling, so negative values will be towards the ground getting us from some height to 0. • Who wants to explain the formula?
Baton Twirling • When a baton twirler releases the baton into the air, the twirler’s hand is 5 feet above the ground. The twirler will catch the baton when it falls back to a height of 6 feet. The initial velocity is 30 feet per second. How many seconds is the baton in the air?? • Initial velocity v = 30 ft/sec • Initial height s = 5 feet • final height h = 6 feet
6 = -16t2 + 30t + 5 • 16t2 - 30t + 1 = 0 • using the quadratic formula What do those times mean?
A rocket is fired upward with an initial speed of 1960 m/s. after how long does it take to hit the ground?
h=height of ground = 0 meters v=initial velocity = 1960 m/s s=initial height = 0 meters Explain the two solutions!
