Voltage sags and swells. The power quality of a transformer is measured by the quality of the voltage. Two causes of poor power

quality are "sags" and "swells." A sag is an unusual dip, and a swell is an unusual increase in the voltage level of a transformer. The power quality of transformers built in Turkey was investigated in Electrical Engineering (Vol. 95, 2013). For a sample of 103 transformers built for heavy industry, the mean number of sags per week was 353 and the mean number of swells per week was 184. Assume the standard deviation of the sag distribution is 30 sags per week and the standard deviation of the swell distribution is 25 swells per week. Suppose one of the transformers is randomly selected and found to have 400 sags and 100 swells in a week.
a. Find the z-score for the number of sags for this transformer. Interpret this value. 1.57

b. Find the z-score for the number of swells for this transformer. Interpret this value. -3.36

Answer:

a

 z-score = 1.57

b

 z-score_s = -3.36

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n =  103  

    The  sample mean of  sag is  \= x_1 =  353

     The sample mean of swells is  \= x_2 =  184

    The standard deviation of  sag is  s_1  =  30

     The standard deviation of swells is  s_2  =  25

     The number of swell for a randomly selected transformer is  k  =  100

      The number of sag for a randomly selected transformer is  c  =  400

Generally the z-score for the number of swells is mathematically represented as

     z-score_s = \frac{ k - \= x_2}{s_2}

=>   z-score_s = \frac{ 100- 184}{25}

=>     z-score_s = -3.36

       

Generally the z-score for the number of sags is mathematically represented as    

      z-score = \frac{ c - \= x_1}{s_1}

     z-score = \frac{ 400 - 353}{30}

     z-score = 1.57

Answer:

Answer:

safe speed for the larger radius track u= √2 v

Explanation:

The sum of the forces on either side is the same, the only difference is the radius of curvature and speed.

Also given that r_1= smaller radius

r_2= larger radius curve

r_2= 2r_1..............i

let u be the speed of larger radius curve

now, \sum F = \frac{mv^2}{r_1} =\frac{mu^2}{r_2}∑F=

r

................ii

form i and ii we can write

⇒u= √2 v

therefore, safe speed for the larger radius track u= √2 v

matrenka [14]

Jenny won the race as she finished the race much more quickly and has greater average speed than Lester.

\sf \boxed{\sf speed:\frac{distance}{time \ taken} }

Jenny: distance/time = 100/15.2 = 6.58 m/s = 6.6 m/s

Lester: distance/time = 100/15.7 = 6.37 m/s = 6.4 m/s

A motel owner observes that when a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are occupied. For every $3 rise in t
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

a) p(x) = 300 - 3

b) P(x) = -3 x² + 285 x

c) Price of per room per day  = $ 157.5

when Number of rooms occupied , x = 47.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - A motel owner observes that when a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are occupied. For every $3 rise in the charge per room per day, one more room is vacant. Each occupied room costs an additional $15 per day to maintain.

To find - a) Find the demand function, expressing p, the price charged for each room per day, as a function of x, the number of rooms occupied.

             b) Find the profit function P(x).

             c) Find the price of per room per day the motel should charge in order to maximize its profit.

Proof -

a)

Let

(x, y) be the point

where x represents number of rooms occupied

and y represents price of room per day.

Now,

Given that,

a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are occupied.

So, point becomes (80, 60)

And  given that For every $3 rise in the charge per room per day, one more room is vacant.

So, point becomes (79, 63)

Now, we have two points (80, 60), (79, 63)

Let us assume that,

p(x) be the price charged for each room per day

Now,

By using point - slope formula , we get

p -60 = \frac{(63 - 60}{(79 - 80)} (x - 80)

⇒p -60 = (-3)(x-80)

⇒p-60 = 240 -3 x

⇒p(x) = 240 + 60 -3 x

⇒p(x) = 300 - 3 x

b)

Given that,

Each occupied room costs an additional $15 per day to maintain.

Let C(x) be the cost function,

Then C(x) =15 x

now,

Revenue function,

R(x) =x*p

      = x*(300 -3 x )

      = 300 x - 3 x²

⇒R(x) = 300 x - 3 x²

Now,

We know

Profit function = Revenue function - Cost function

⇒P(x) = R(x)-C(x)

⇒P(x) = (300 x -3 x²) -15 x

⇒P(x) = -3 x² + 285 x

c)

P'(x) = -6 x +285

For Maximize profit , Put P'(x) = 0

⇒-6 x+ 285 =0

⇒6 x= 285

⇒x = \frac{285}{6}

⇒x= 47.5

∴ we get

Maximize profit is when price, p = 300 - 3x

                                                      = 300 -3(47.5)

                                                      = $157.5

⇒Price of per room per day  = $ 157.5

when Number of rooms occupied , x = 47.5

Emma, Brandy, and Damian will cut a rope that is 29.8 feet long into 3 jump ropes. Each of the three jump ropes will be the same
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The length of each rope is 9.93 feet (Approx).

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Emma, Brandy, and Damian will cut a rope that is 29.8 feet long into 3 jump ropes.

Each of the three jump ropes will be the same length.

Thus

Length\ of\ each\ rope = \frac{29.8}{3}

Length\ of\ each\ rope = 9.93\ feet(Approx)

Therefore the length of the each rope is 9.93 feet (Approx).
