Question

Help ‼️

A exists a game called "The
Strongman" that involves striking a lever with a mallet that forces aweight up a tube.
If the weight reaches 20 feet to ring the bell, the
height of the weight if the initial velocity is 32 feet per second. Find
contestant wins a prize. The equation h = -167 + 32t + 3 gives the
part of the equation has
to change for the weak man' to win?

Answer 1

19feet

Explanation:

Given the expression for height of a man expressed as;

h = -16t² + 32t + 3

We are to find the maximum height reached by the man;

At the max height dh/dt = -32t + 32

v(t) = -32t + 32

0 = -32t + 32

32t = 32

t = 32/32

t = 1.sec

Substitute t = 1 into the expression given

h = -16(1)² + 32(1) + 3

h = -16 + 35

h = 19feet

Hence the maximum height reached by the man is 19feet
