The distance s in feet that a body falls in t seconds is given by the formula s=16t^2. If a body has been falling for 5 seconds, how far will it fall during the 6th second?
16 * (6^2 - 5^2) feet
To find the distance that a body will fall during the 6th second, we need to substitute the value of t into the formula s = 16t^2.
Given that t = 6 (6th second), we can plug in this value into the formula:
s = 16 * (6)^2
s = 16 * 36
s = 576 feet
Thus, the body will fall 576 feet during the 6th second.
