The velocity of a roller coaster as it moves down a hill is v=√v²+64h. where v is the initial velocity and h is the vertical drop in feet. the designer wants the coaster to have a velocity of 200 feet per second when it reaches the bottom of the hill. if the initial velocity of the coaster is 30 feet per second, how high should the designer make the hill?
