How could the function y=3x2+4 be plotted on a Cartesian graph to produce a straight line? What would be the numerical values of the slope and intercept of the line?

Follow these directions and answer the questions. 1. set up the ripple tank as in previous investigations. 2. bend the rubber tube to form a "concave mirror" and place in the ripple tank. the water level must be below the top of the hose. 3. generate a few straight pulses with the dowel and observe the reflected waves. do the waves focus (come together) upon reflection? can you locate the place where the waves meet? 4. touch the water surface where the waves converged. what happens to the reflected wave? 5. move your finger twice that distance from the hose (2f = c of c, center of the curvature) and touch the water again. does the image (the reflected wave) appear in the same location (c of c)? you may have to experiment before you find the exact location. sometimes it is hard to visualize with the ripple tank because the waves move so quickly. likewise, it is impossible to "see" light waves because they have such small wavelengths and move at the speed of light. however, both are examples of transverse waves and behave in the same way when a parallel wave fronts hit a curved surface.

The graph represents the distance a car travels over time while on the highway. which statement about the car's trip is accurate? a) the car does not move over time. b) the car travels at a constant velocity. c) the car's velocity increases constantly over time. d) the car's velocity decreases constantly over time.

Astone is dropped from the upper observation deck of a tower, 250 m above the ground. (assume g = 9.8 m/s2.) (a) find the distance (in meters) of the stone above ground level at time t. h(t) = (b) how long does it take the stone to reach the ground? (round your answer to two decimal places.) s (c) with what velocity does it strike the ground? (round your answer to one decimal place.) m/s (d) if the stone is thrown downward with a speed of 2 m/s, how long does it take to reach the ground? (round your answer to two decimal places.) s
