Question refer to the following information:

An arrow is launched upward with an initial speed of 100 meters per second (m/s). The equations above describe the constant-acceleration motion of the arrow, where v0 is the initial speed of the arrow, v is the speed of the arrow as it is moving up in the air, h is the height of the arrow above the ground, t is the time elapsed since the arrow was projected upward, and g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s2).
What is the maximum height from the ground the arrow will rise to the nearest meter?
    Correct answer is '510'. Can you explain this answer?
    Verified Answer
    Question refer to the following information:An arrow is launched upwar...
    As the arrow moves upward, its speed decreases continuously and it becomes 0 when the arrow reaches its maximum height. Using the position-speed equation and the fact that v = 0 when h is maximum gives 0 = 1002 − 2gh. Solving for h giveswhich to the nearest meter is 510. Alternatively, the maximum height can be found using the position-time equation. Substituting 100 for v0 and 9.8 for g into this equation gives Completing the square gives the equivalent equation Therefore, the maximum height from the ground the arrow will rise iswhich to the nearest meter is 510.

The process sounds simple: an artist, entrepreneur, or other innovator takes his or her ideas straight to the public via a crowdfunding website. The innovator creates a video about the project and offers, in exchange for donations, a series of “perks,” from acknowledgment on a social media site to a small piece of art. Many crowdfunding programs are all-or-nothing; in other words, the innovator must garner 100 percent funding for the project or the money is refunded to the donors. At (1) it’s best, the system can give creators direct access to millions of potential backers.The home page of one leading crowdfunding site features a project to manufacture pinhole cameras on a 3-D printer. (2) The idea is obviously very attractive. An obscure method of photography may be made available to many with little expense. Within weeks, the project was 621 percent funded. In contrast, on the same page, a small Brooklyn performance venue is attempting to raise money for its current season. The venue features works of performance art showcased in a storefront window.Those who have seen the space consider it vital.(3) However, that group may not be large enough; with just fourteen days to go in the fund-raising period, the campaign is only 46 percent funded.Artists such as these Brooklyn performers find that crowdfunding exacerbates problems that already exist.(4) Work, that is easily understood and appreciated, is supported, while more complex work goes unnoticed.(5) Time that could be used creating art is spent devising clever perks to draw the attention of potential contributors. (6) In addition, audiences may contain many “free (7) riders,” they did not make contributions.Ironically, the success of crowdfunding may weaken overall funding for the arts if people begin to feel that paying for the art (8) loved by them is someone else’s responsibility.1. One innovative playwright has woven the deficiencies of the system into her crowdfunding model.2. Though the price for her tickets was higher than that of tickets for comparable shows, it was still affordable to most theatergoers—and reflected the real cost of the performance.3. She presented the total cost for producing her play on a crowdfunding site.4. Then she divided the total cost by the number of people she expected to attend the performance.5. The result of the calculation was the minimum donor price, and only donors who paid at least the minimum ticket price were allowed to attend the performance.6. By subverting the presumption that money used for her project is an altruistic donation, the playwright showed that (9) our work has monetary value to those who enjoy it. (10)Question (11) asks about the graphic.Q.At this point, the writer is considering adding the following sentence.Crowdfunding tends to attract contributors from a wide variety of professional fields.Should the writer make this addition here?

The science of genomics is developing better, cheaper, and faster ways to decode our DNA, and doctors are becoming more (5) apropos at using this information to create “personalized medicine.” Other researchers are learning how to turn the most rudimentary human cells, “stem cells,” into specialized tissues (6) for helping to repair damaged human organs. And oncologists—cancer specialists—are now coming to understand how the human immune system can be decoded to provide a crucial weapon against the most dangerous tumors.7 In particular, the success of these new biological technologies (8) depends on our ability in translating vast quantities of chemical information into digital form. Specialized software and hardware (9) is needed to be developed to turn biochemical data into information that doctors and researchers can use to streamline research and make patients lives better. Fortunately, the progress has so far been good. Since the Human Genome Project was completed in 2003, the National Human Genome Research Institute has monitored the cost of decoding a single human-sized genome.
