    Engineering Find the distance given a function for v(t)

    At first I was going to use the values 7m /s to 99 m/s as the numbers to plug into the equations to solve for the distance but these values are for velocity and not for seconds.

    Engineering Find the distance given a function for v(t)

    My solution: v = 2*t + 5*t^2. dx/dt = 2*t + 5*t^2. Therefore dx = (2t + 5t^2)dt. After taking the anti derivative my equation is s = t^2/2 + 5/3(t^3).

    A stone is dropped from an ascending balloon...

    I actually forgot that I worked on this problem from last year. But I now remember.

    A stone is dropped from an ascending balloon...

    I am back. I used the formula s = 1/2(v+v0)*t. The first was s0 = 1/2*(10+0)*1. The answer was 5. My logic was at first the stone left the balloon starting the velocity as 0. Then I continued to use the formula s1 =1/2 (v+v0)*2 for two seconds and ect. every time I used the formula I add a...

    A stone is dropped from an ascending balloon...

    TL;DR Summary: I have a problem that I am working on in my Engineering Dynamics Book. A stone is dropped from a balloon that is ascending at a uniform rate of 10m/s. If it takes the stone 10 seconds to reach the ground, how high was the balloon at the instant the stone was dropped? The answer...

    Engineering Determine the flight time and heights of 2 balls thrown vertically

    The one formula that I thought about was the projectile motion formula using y = -4.9t^2 + vo*t*sinO. Sin O(sin of theta). However this does not solve my problem to find the correct height.

    Engineering Determine the flight time and heights of 2 balls thrown vertically

    To find the time of this problem, I used the equations 3 + (10 * x ) = 13.5 *x. 3 = 3.5*x. Therefore x was 0.857. To start off with child A was already three feet above ground and I got the answer to the time. However I couldn't find the height.

    Engineering I have a free body diagram that I have drawn to describe my problem of dry ice in a bottle

    My free body diagram doesn't include the ice that comes as a result of water that will eventually freeze. However, in reality, I definitely have to include the ice in the fbd as well.

    Engineering I have a free body diagram that I have drawn to describe my problem of dry ice in a bottle

    Actually, I meant that the dry ice is converted into carbon dioxide. My apology.

    Engineering Determining how far a body will move up an inclined plane and the time to reach the highest point

    I have an object that is going up the plane at 25 degrees to the right. It is going at 15 m/s. I drew a free body diagram of the object. I have a P force at 15 m/ s going up the direction at 25 degrees. I also have friction force going in the opposite direction of 0.25 * N.

    Engineering Determining how far a body will move up an inclined plane and the time to reach the highest point

    I have tried to used the drawing pad last night to show my work but I am having trouble using it.
