kicyunya [14]

Answer:

a. 86.80 m

b. i. The mass of the bob

ii. The length of the pendulum

Explanation:

a. Determine the height of the smokestack.

Using T = 2π√(L/g) where T = period of pendulum = 18.7 s, L = length of pendulum = height of smokestack and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

So, making L subject of the formula, we have

T = 2π√(L/g)

T/2π = √(L/g)

squaring both sides, we have

(T/2π)² = L/g

L = (T/2π)²g

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

L = (T/2π)²g

L = (18.7 s/2π)²(9.8 m/s²)

L = (2.976 s)²(9.8 m/s²)

L = 8.857 s² × 9.8 m/s²

L = 86.796 m

L ≅ 86.80 m

b. What factors influence the period of a simple pendulum

The factors that influence the period of a simple pendulum are

i. The mass of the bob

ii. The length of the pendulum

Suppose electric power is supplied from two independent sources which work with probabilities 0.4, 0.5, respectively. if both so
sattari [20]

Answer:

The answers to the questions are as follows

a)  k = 0, P = 0.3

k = 1, P = 0.5

k = 0, P = 0.2

b) The probability that enough power will be available is 0.5.

Explanation:

To solve the question we write the parameters as follows

Probability that the first power source works = P(A) = 0.4

Probability that the second power source works = P(B) = 0.5

When both sources are supplying power  we have the probability = 1

If non of them is producing the probability = 0

a) The probability that exactly k sources work for k=0,1,2 is given by

For k = 0, probability = (1- P(A))× (1- P(B)) = 0.6 × 0.5 =0.3

Therefore the probabilities that exactly 0 source work  = 0.3

for k = 1 we have the probability = P(A)(1-P(B)) + P(B)(1-P(A)

= 0.4(1-0.5)+0.5(1-0.4) = 0.2 + 0.3 = 0.5

The probabilities that exactly 1 source work  = 0.5

for k = 2 we have the probability given by = P(A) × P(B) = 0.4 × 0.5 = 0.2

Therefore the  probability that exactly 2 sources work  = 0.2

b)  The probability that enough power will be available is

0 × P(k = 0) + 0.6 × P(k = 1) + 1 × P(k = 2)

0 × 0.2 + 0.6 × 0.5 + 1 × 0.2 = 0.5

The probability that enough power will be available is 0.5.

What is table salt (NaCl) formed by?
Rzqust [24]
NaCl is a compound formed by a chemical reaction between Na (Sodium) and Cl (Chlorine). Sodium is an alkai metal in Group One of the Periodic Table, and it is very reactive. All alkai metals react violently with water and they are often found combined in nature because they are that reactive. Chlorine is a halogen in Group 17 of the Periodic Table and they are very reactive.
