Two basketball players are essentially equal in all respects. (they are the same height, they jump with the same initial velocity, etc.) in particular, by jumping they can raise their centers of mass the same vertical distance, (called h their "vertical leap"). the first player, arabella, wishes to shoot over the second player, boris, and for this she needs to be as high above boris as possible. arabella jumps at time , and boris jumps later, at time (his reaction time). assume that arabella has not yet reached her maximum height when boris jumps.

1)find the vertical displacement , d(t) = h(a)(t) - h(b)(t) as a function of time for the interval 0 < t < t(r) , where h(a)(t) is the height of the raised hands of arabella, while h(b)(t) is the height of the raised hands of boris.

express the vertical displacement in terms of h, g , and t.

On a mild saturday morning while people are working inside, the furnace keeps the temperature inside the building at 23degreesc. at noon the furnace is turned off, and the people go home. the temperature outside is a constant 16degreesc for the rest of the afternoon. if the time constant for the building is 3 hr, when will the temperature inside the building reach 18degreesc? if some windows are left open and the time constant drops to 2 hr, when will the temperature inside reach 18degreesc?
