4. The diameters of bolts produced by a certain machine are normally distributed with a mean of 0.35 inches and a standard devia

tion of 0.03 inches. What percentage of bolts will have a diameter greater than 0.37 inches? Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

25.25%

Explanation:

Mean diameter (μ) = 0.35 inches

Standard deviation (σ) = 0.03 inches

For any given diameter, X, the z-score is given by:

$z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

For X= 0.37 inches:

$z=\frac{0.37-0.35}{0.03}\\z=0.6667$

A z-score of 0.6667 is equivalent to the 74.75-th percentile of a normal distribution.

Therefore, the percentage of bolts that will have a diameter greater than 0.37 inches is:

$P(X>0.37) = 100 - 74.75\\P(X>0.37) = 25.25\%$

| A 1.0 kg stone is dropped from a bridge 100 m above a canyon. What will be the kinetic energy of the stone after it

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Option D

490 J

Explanation:

When at a height of 100 am above and released, the ball initially posses only potential energy. When it falls, some potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

Initial potential energy= mgh where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is height. Substituting 1 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 100 m for h then

PE initial = 1*9.81*100= 981 J

At 50 m, PE will be 1*9.81*50=490.5 J

Subtracting PE at 50 m from initial PE we get the energy that has been converted to kinetic energy hence

981-490.5= 490.5 J

Approximately, 490 J

A machine part has the shape of a solid uniform sphere of mass 250 g and a diameter of 4.30 cm. It is spinning about a frictionl

zysi [14]

Answer: $\alpha =9.302\ rad/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

mass of sphere $m=250\ gm$

diameter of sphere $d=4.30\ cm$

radius $r=\frac{4.30}{2}\ cm$

$f=0.0200\ N$

friction will provide resisting torque so

$f\times r=I\times \alpha$

where $I=\text{moment of Inertia}$

$f=\text{friction force}$

$\alpha =\text{angular acceleration}$

$I=\frac{2}{5}mr^2$

$0.02\times r=\frac{2}{5}mr^2\times \alpha$

$\alpha =\frac{5}{2r}\times f$

$\alpha =\frac{5}{2}\times \frac{2}{4.3\times 10^{-2}}\times 0.02$

$\alpha =9.302\ rad/s^2$

(b)time taken to decrease its rotational speed by $21\ rad/s$

$t=\dfrac{\Delta \omega }{\alpha }$

$t=\dfrac{21}{9.302}$

$t=2.25\ s$

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

Initial speed, u = 4 m/s

Final velocity, V = 11 m/s

Time, t = 8 seconds

t2, = 16 seconds

Acceleration, a= (change in velocity) / time interval

a = (11 - 4) / 8

a = 7 / 8 = 0.875m/s²

Final velocity, v2 ;

Acceleration * t2

0.875 * 16 = 14

V2 = 14 m/s

Final speed : v + v2 = (11 + 14)m/s = 25m/s
