{Use of Tech} Power and energy Power and energy are often used interchangeably, but they are quite different. Energy is what makes matter move or heat up. It is measured in units of joules or Calories, where 1 Cal=4184 J. One hour of walking consumes roughly 10⁶J, or 240 Cal. On the other hand, power is the rate at which energy is used, which is measured in watts, where 1 W=1 J/s. Other useful units of power are kilowatts (1 kW=10³ W) and megawatts (1 MW=10⁶ W). If energy is used at a rate of 1 kW for one hour, the total amount of energy used is 1 kilowatt-hour (1 kWh=3.6×10⁶ J) Suppose the cumulative energy used in a large building over a 24-hr period is given by E(t)=100t+4t²−t³ / 9kWh where t=0 corresponds to midnight.

f(x)=(sec^−1 x)/x on [1,∞)

Suppose a stone is thrown vertically upward from the edge of a cliff on Earth with an initial velocity of 64 ft/s from a height of 32 ft above the ground. The height (in feet) of the stone above the ground t seconds after it is thrown is s(t) = -16t²+64t+32.

c. What is the height of the stone at the highest point?

Vibrations of a spring Suppose an object of mass m is attached to the end of a spring hanging from the ceiling. The mass is at its equilibrium position $y=0$ when the mass hangs at rest. Suppose you push the mass to a position $y_0$ units above its equilibrium position and release it. As the mass oscillates up and down (neglecting any friction in the system), the position y of the mass after t seconds is $y=y_0\cos \left(t\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\right)$, where $k>0$ is a constant measuring the stiffness of the spring (the larger the value of $k$, the stiffer the spring) and $y$ is positive in the upward direction.

Use equation (4) to answer the following questions.

c. How would the velocity be affected if the experiment were repeated with a spring having four times the stiffness ($k$ is increased by a factor of $4$)?
