Question

which of the followings are solutions that can be modeled with quadratic function? select all that apply

Answer 1

5) The height of a rocket after it is launched

For this case, what you should do is remember the kinematics expressions where we have:

a

v = a * t + vo

y = a * t ^ 2 + vo * t + i

Where,

a: acceleration

v: speed

y: vertical position

t: time

vo: initial speed

yo: initial position

We observe that the expression for the given position is given by a quadratic expression.
