4.Directions: You are part of a fireworks crew assembling a local fireworks display.
There are two parts to the fireworks platforms:
...
rts to the fireworks platforms: one part is on the ground and the
other part is on top of a building. You are going to graph all of your results on one
coordinate plane. Make sure to label each graph with its equation. Use the following
equations to assist with this assignment.
• The function for objects dropped from a height where t is the time in
seconds, h is the height in feet at time it t, and 0 h is the initial height is
2
0 ht t h ( ) 16 =− + .
• The function for objects that are launched where t is the time in seconds, h is
the height in feet at time t, 0 h is the initial height, and 0 v is the initial velocity
in feet per second is 2
0 0 ht t vt h ( ) 16 =− + + .

Task 1
First, conduct some research to help you with later portions of this portfolio
assessment.
• Find a local building and estimate its height. How tall do you think the
building is?
• Use the Internet to find some initial velocities for different types of fireworks.
What are some of the initial velocities that you found?
Task 2
Respond to the following items.
1. While setting up a fireworks display, you have a tool at the top of the
building and need to drop it to a coworker below.
a. How long will it take the tool to fall to the ground? (Hint: use the first
equation that you were given above, 2
0 ht t h ( ) 16 =− + . For the building’s
height, use the height of the building that you estimated in Task 1.)
b. Draw a graph that represents the path of this tool falling to the
ground. Be sure to label your axes with a title and a scale. Your graph
should show the height of the tool, h, after t seconds have passed.
Label this line “Tool”.

5.I'm stuck on this problem regarding finding the speed of a cart moving down and then up a slope from
...
rest. The current unit that our teacher has us on so far is centripetal motion, and I can't recall being taught how to solve this. File attached below shows my work so far, I don't necessarily need the work done for me, but I just want to be put on the right track, such as an equation to start with or what I need to look for. The answer I got was clearly incorrect for part a (which is what I need help with), so please help me get going in the right direction.

8.Hi, I've been trying to figure out what should be the simplest of formulas for over an hour now. Take
...
e a look at this spreadsheet so I can properly explain:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lEJIPiSZJk9LYUTSA4oeDwyLXCVd18Zdewm6gnjxcXo/edit?usp=sharing
Ok, so for the sake of simplicity We'll just go with row two here. Cell A2 represents the hours worked freelancing, where B2 is for the minutes of the recorded time frame. C2 is the net amount earned in that time. Over in cell N10 I need to figure out an equation using the =SUM() function (treats it as a normal math problem) where it prints the hourly income based on those three integers. I'll admit i was never great at math, but in my defense I've been up since 6 am yesterday (currently 3 pm) and have been running solely on caffiene and nicotine haha... The sheet is editable and I can see any changes you make in realtime. Is there any way you could help me out on this one? It's for a work report type thing.

13.I am looking for someone who is used to water resources engineering/fluid dynamics. I have been tasked to design the
...
ed to design the water, wastewater, and stormwater systems for an addition to a building at our university. I have the maps of the existing systems and I am planning to use these existing systems as much as possible to avoid extra work. I have calculated a water demand and fire flow for the building. I believe I have to use mannings equation for the water pipes to determine flow, etc. I am not sure how to deal with the wastewater. I have to use the rational method for stormwater. I have attached a document which explains what I need to do overall. I need help on this ASAP as I have to present it Tuesday evening.
