A golf ball í hit off the ground at an angel pi/6 travels 400ft.how long in the air

You can write the equations of motion as
h(t) = -16t² + v₀sin(θ)t
d(t) = v₀cos(θ)t

Solving the second of these for t and substituting into the first equation gives the time of flight as
0 = -16t² + d(t)·tan(θ)
t = √(d(t)·tan(θ)/16)

So, for d(t) = 400 and θ = π/6, this becomes
t = √((400/16)/√3)
t = 5/√(√3) ≈ 3.79918

The ball is in the air about 3.80 seconds.

You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population mean. Based on previous evidence, you believe the population standard devia

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (3)

$n=(\frac{2.58(54.5)}{5})^2 =790.846 \approx 791$

So the answer for this case would be n=791 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.99 or 99%, the value of $\alpha=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.005,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (2)

And on this case we have that ME =+5 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (2) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (3)

$n=(\frac{2.58(54.5)}{5})^2 =790.846 \approx 791$

So the answer for this case would be n=791 rounded up to the nearest integer

A train is traveling at a constant speed. The diagram represents the train's distance and time. What is the speed of the train?

Over [174]

240÷6=40 so the answer would be "The train is traveling 40 miles per hour."

The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 5.1 m. How long are its sides?

Alja [10]

Answer:

1.7 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

because an equilateral triangle has 3 sides and they are all the same you can just divide 5.1 by 3

5.1 / 3 = 1.7

it is 1.7 m

What is x, the angle at which the diagonal beam meets the 10-foot beam at the top of the frame? 16.7° 17.5° 72.5° 73.3°

umka21 [38]

The complete question is

"A theater production group is making frames to support wall-like props. Three-foot beams form right triangles with 10-foot beams to allow them to stand, as shown in the image.

What is x, the angle at which the diagonal beam meets the 10-foot beam at the top of the frame?

16.7°, 17.5°, 72.5°,73.3°"

The value of angle x would be 16.7 degrees.

<h3>What is the right triangle?</h3>

A right-angle triangle is a triangle that has a side opposite to the right angle the largest side and is referred to as the hypotenuse.

The angle of a right angle is always 90 degrees.

In order to find the value of x, a tan would be used.

This is because we have given the opposite and adjacent sides as 10 ft and 3 ft.

Tan Ф = opposite / adjacent

Tan Ф = (3/10)

= 16.7 degrees

The value of angle x would be 16.7 degrees.
