Assume an Object Weighing 7 Pounds Is Dropped from a Height

Question 16

Multiple Choice

Assume an object weighing 7 pounds is dropped from a height of 9,000 feet, where the air resistance is proportional to the velocity. Round numerical answers in your answer to two Places.
(i) Write the velocity as a function of time if the object's velocity after 6 seconds is 3.50 feet per
Second.
(ii) What is the limiting value of the velocity function?


A)
(i) v(t) =3.5000(1e9.1429t) v ( t ) = 3.5000 \left( 1 - e ^ { - 9.1429 t } \right) ;
(ii) 0
B) (i) v(t) =3.5000(1e9.1429t) v ( t ) = 3.5000 \left( 1 - e ^ { 9.1429 t } \right) ;
(ii) 0
C) (i) v(t) =3.5000(1e9.1429t) v ( t ) = 3.5000 \left( 1 - e ^ { - 9.1429 t } \right) ;
(ii) 3.50003.5000
D) (i) v(t) =3.5000(1e9.1429t) v ( t ) = 3.5000 \left( 1 - e ^ { 9.1429 t } \right) ;
(ii) 3.50003.5000
E) (i) v(t) =3.5000(1+e9.1429t) v ( t ) = 3.5000 \left( 1 + e ^ { 9.1429 t } \right) ;
(ii) limit does not exist
