An object has a kinetic energy of 14 J and a mass of 17 kg , how fast is the object moving?

lisabon 2012 [21]

$v ^{2}$ = Joules ÷ (0.5×Kilograms)

14J ÷ 8.5 = 1.64705882

Remember, 1.64705882 = v², so we need to find the square root.

The square root of 1.64705882 is 1.283377894464448

Hope this helps!

f your risk-aversion coefficient is A = 4 and you believe that the entire 1926–2015 period is representative of future expected

siniylev [52]

Answer:

The portfolio should invest 48.94% in equity while 51.05% in the T-bills.

Explanation:

As the complete question is not given here ,the table of data is missing which is as attached herewith.

From the maximized equation of the utility function it is evident that

$Weight=\frac{E_M-r_f}{A\sigma_M^2}$

For the equity, here as

$Weight$ is percentage of the equity which is to be calculated
${E_M-r_f}$ is the Risk premium whose value as seen from the attached data for the period 1926-2015 is 8.30%
$A$ is the risk aversion factor which is given as 4.
$\sigma_M$ is the standard deviation of the portfolio which from the data for the period 1926-2015 is 20.59

By substituting values.

$Weight=\frac{E_M-r_f}{A\sigma_M^2}\\Weight=\frac{8.30\%}{4(20.59\%)^2}\\Weight=0.4894 =48.94\%$

So the weight of equity is 48.94%.

Now the weight of T bills is given as

$Weight_{T-Bills}=1-Weight_{equity}\\Weight_{T-Bills}=1-0.4894\\Weight_{T-Bills}=0.5105=51.05\%\\$

So the weight of T-bills is 51.05%.

The portfolio should invest 48.94% in equity while 51.05% in the T-bills.

A 9.0-kg bowling ball on a horizontal, frictionless surface experiences a net force of 6.0 n. what will be its acceleration?

Vladimir [108]

This question involves the concepts of Newton's Second Law of Motion.

The acceleration of the bowling ball will be "0.67 m/s²".

<h3>Newton's Second Law of Motion</h3>

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, when an unbalanced force is applied on an object, it produces an acceleration in it, in the direction of the applied force. This acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. Mathematically,

$F=ma\\\\a=\frac{F}{m}$

where,

a = acceleration = ?
F = Magnitude of the applied force = 6 N
m = Mass of the ball = 9 kg

Therefore,

$a=\frac{6\ N}{9\ kg}$

a = 0.67 m/s²
