A punter can kick a football with an initial velocity of 48 meters per second. How many seconds will it take the ball to return to the ground? Use the formula h = vt - 16t^2

Respuesta :

check the picture below.


[tex]\bf \stackrel{h}{0}=\stackrel{v=48}{48t}-16t^2\implies 0=16t(3-t^2) \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ 0=16t\implies 0=t\impliedby \textit{when it first takes off from the ground} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ 0=3-t^2\implies t^2=3\implies t=\sqrt{3}\impliedby \textit{when it came back down}[/tex]
