Answer:

  122.5 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between force, wind speed, and area can be written ...

  f = ks²a

for some wind speed s and area a.

__

The constant of proportionality, k, can be found from the given data.

  64.8 = k(18²)(500) . . . force in pounds, area in square feet, speed in mph

  k = 64.8/(324×500) = 0.0004

__

Using the equation with the second set of data, we have ...

  f = 0.0004(35²)(250) = 122.5 . . . . pounds

The force on the 250 square foot sail would be 122.5 pounds.

Using the chart above, find the total amount and amount of interest paid in the following compound interest problems.
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Annually: Total Amount = 1611.76, Interest Amount = 711.76

Semiannually: Total Amount = 1625.50 , Interest Amount = 725.50

Quarterly: Total Amount = 1632.62 , Interest Amount = 732.62

Step by Step Explanation:

We can see from the table that the factor that we need to multiply with 900 in order to get amount for compounded annually is 1.7908477. Therefore, our total amount is 1.7908477*900 = 1611.76 and interest earned is 1611.76-900 = 711.76.

The factor that we need to multiply with 900 in order to get amount for compounded semiannually is 1.8061112. Therefore, our total amount is 1.8061112*900 = 1625.50 and interest earned is 1625.50-900 = 725.50.

The factor that we need to multiply with 900 in order to get amount for compounded semiannually is 1.8140184. Therefore, our total amount is 1.8140184*900 = 1632.62 and interest earned is 1632.62-900 = 732.62.
