Answer:

29.5+/-1.11

= ( 28.39, 30.61)

Therefore, the 90% confidence interval (a,b) =( 28.39, 30.61)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 29.5

Standard deviation r = 5.2

Number of samples n = 59

Confidence interval = 90%

z-value (at 90% confidence) = 1.645

Substituting the values we have;

29.5+/-1.645(5.2/√59)

29.5+/-1.645(0.676982337100)

29.5+/-1.113635944529

29.5+/-1.11

= ( 28.39, 30.61)

Therefore, the 90% confidence interval (a,b) =( 28.39, 30.61)

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

A) C1 = 0.00187 m = 0.187 cm,  C2 = 0.0062 m = 0.62 cm

B)  A sample of how the graph looks like is attached below ( periodic sine wave )

C) w = \sqrt[4]{3} is when the amplitude of the forced response is maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data :

mass = 5kg

length of spring = 10 cm = 0.1 m

f(t) = 10sin(t) N

viscous force = 2 N

speed of mass = 4 cm/s = 0.04 m/s

initial velocity = 3 cm/s = 0.03 m/s

Formulating initial value problem

y = viscous force / speed = 2 N / 0.04 m/s = 50 N sec/m

spring constant = mg/ Length of spring = (5 * 9.8) / 0.1 = 490 N/m

f(t) = 10sin(t/2) N

using the initial conditions of u(0) = 0 m and u"(0) = 0.03 m/s to express the equation of motion

the equation of motion = 5u" + 50u' + 490u = 10sin(t/2)

A) finding the solution of the initial value

attached below is the solution and

B) attached is a periodic sine wave replica of how the grapgh of the steady state solution looks like

C attached below
