Tutorial 5 Math 0130 A. Projectile Motion A child throws a ball upward from the roof of a house. The trajectory is parabolic, according to the laws of physics. The height of the ball above the ground, h(x) (in meters) is given by the quadratic function: h(x) = -3x2 + 6x +4 where x is the horizontal distance from the house in meters. The goal of this tutorial is to graph this function and analyze and interpret the graph within the problem context. Show the following steps on the blackboard or paper as your instructor directs: a) State the coordinates of the h-intercept. Explain the meaning of this intercept within the problem context. b) Complete the square on the right-hand side to convert the function from general form to standard form. State the coordinates of the vertex. c) Find vertex by using the vertex formula. The result should be the same as in part b) above. d) What is the significance of the vertex in this problem context? e) Using all of the information from parts a) through d), sketch the quadratic function on its mathematical domain. Scale your graph appropriately and label all the important parts of the trajectory. f) Identify the practical domain on your graph and state the practical domain in interval notation. g) Use the quadratic formula to find the X-intercepts. Simplify fully and express exact answers. Plot these points on your graph. What is the meaning of these intercepts in the problem context? B. Air Temperature Avalanche researchers know that the temperature gradients within a snowpack are highly responsive to air temperature changes at the surface of the snowpack. These changing temperature profiles within the snowpack can result in the structural failure of existing weak layers. The researchers have collected data that measures the air temperature (in degrees Celsius) just above the snow surface over a period of 5 hours, where t = 0 corresponds to noon on a particular day. The air temperature function is given by T(t) = =t (3 - 2t) (2t - 5)2(t - 4) a) In the data collection window, [0,5], when is the air temperature at freezing? b) In the data collection window, when is the air temperature above freezing (causing melt at the snow surface)? c) Sketch the function on the interval [0,5], using the information obtained above
