Question 382

The vertical profile of a survey drone is modeled by a curve CCC with equation h=f(t)h = f(t)h=f(t), t>0t > 0t>0, where hhh is the altitude in meters and ttt is the time in seconds. The drone passes through the point P(4,10)P(4, 10)P(4,10).

Given that f′(t)=3t+2−16t2\displaystyle f'(t) = 3\sqrt{t} + 2 - \frac{16}{t^2}f′(t)=3t​+2−t216​

a.

Find the equation of the normal to CCC at PPP. Write your answer in the form at+bh+c=0at + bh + c = 0at+bh+c=0, where aaa, bbb and ccc are integers to be found.
