Answer:

False but if we see the distribution of mass on earth crust.

Explanation:

When we take earth crust in the view it is not necessary to have equal amount of masses on the both sides of the earth crust. We can see ocean which are made up of basaltic rocks(heavier) are not evenly distributed. Ocean and continental plates are made up of different types of material and oceanic floor is heavier than continental floor(made up of granitic rocks).

a. What proportion of resistors have resistances less than 90 Ω? b. Find the mean resistance. c. Find the standard deviation of
Anettt [7]

Answer:

a) 0.0625 = 6.25%

b) 106.67 Ω

c) 9.43 Ω

d) 1

Explanation:

The probability distribution is given as

f(x) = (x - 80)/800 for 80 < x < 120

f(x) = 0 otherwise.

f(x) = (x/800) - (0.1)

a) Proportion of resistors with resistance less than 90 Ω

P(X < 90) = ∫⁹⁰₈₀ f(x) dx

∫⁹⁰₈₀ f(x) dx = ∫⁹⁰₈₀ [(x/800) - (0.1)]

= [(x²/1600) - 0.1x]⁹⁰₈₀

= [(90²/1600) - 0.1(90)] - [(80²/1600) - 0.1(80)]

= (5.0625 - 9) - [4 - 8]

= -3.9375 + 4 = 0.0625 = 6.25%

b) The mean is given by the expected value expression E(X) = = Σ xᵢpᵢ (with the sum done all over the data set for each variable and its corresponding probability)

It can be written in integral form as

Mean = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ xf(x) dx (with the integral done all over the probability function, i.e. from, 80 to 120)

Mean = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ x[(x/800) - (0.1)] dx

= ∫¹²⁰₈₀ [(x²/800) - (0.1x)] dx

= [(x³/2400) - (0.05x²)]¹²⁰₈₀

= [(120³/2400) - (0.05(120²)] - [(80³/2400) - (0.05(80²)]

= [720 - 720] - [213.33 - 320] = 106.67 Ω

c) Standard deviation = √(variance)

Variance = Var(X) = Σx²p − μ²

μ = mean = expected value = 106.67 Ω

Σx²p = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ x²f(x) dx = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ x² [(x/800) - (0.1)] dx = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ [(x³/800) - (0.1x²)] dx

= [(x⁴/3200) - (0.0333x³)]¹²⁰₈₀

= [(120⁴/3200) - (0.0333(120³)] - [(80⁴/3200) - (0.0333(80)³)]

= (64800 - 57600) - (12800 - 17066.667)

= 11466.667

Variance = 11466.667 - 106.67² = 88.85

Standard deviation = √88.85 = 9.43 Ω

d) Cdf = sum of probabilities over the entire probability function

Cdf = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ f(x) dx = ∫¹²⁰₈₀ [(x/800) - (0.1)] dx

= [(x²/1600) - 0.1x]¹²⁰₈₀ = [(120²/1600) - 0.1(120)] - [(80²/1600) - 0.1(80)] = (9 - 12) - (4 - 8) = -3+4 = 1 as it should be!!!

Hope this Helps!!!

We are designing a crude propulsion mechanism for a science fair demonstration. One of our team members stands on a skateboardth
Scrat [10]

Answer:

greater speed will be obtained for the elastic collision,

Explanation:

To answer this exercise we must find the speed that the sail acquires after each impact.

Let's start by hitting a ball of clay.

The system is formed by the candle and the clay balls, therefore the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved.

initial instant. before the crash

         p₀ = m v₀

where m is the mass of the ball and vo its initial velocity, we are assuming that the candle is at rest

final instant. After the crash

the mass of the candle is M

         p_f = (m + M) v

the moment is preserved

          p₀ = p_f

          m v₀ = (m + M) v

          v = \frac{m}{m+M} \ v_o

for when n balls have collided

          v = \frac{m}{n \ m + M}  v₀

Now let's analyze the case of the bouncing ball (elastic)

     

initial instant

        p₀ = m v₀

final moment

        p_f = m v_{1f} + M v_{2f}

        p₀ = p_f

        m v₀ = m v_{1f} + M v_{2f}

       m (v₀ - v_{1f}) = M v_{2f}

this case corresponds to an elastic collision whereby the kinetic energy is conserved

        K₀ = K_f

        ½ m v₀² = ½ m v_{1f}² + ½ M v_{2f}²

        v₁ = v_{1f}            v₂ = v_{2f}

        m (v₀² - v₁²) = M v₂²

let's use the identity

         (a² - b²) = (a + b) (a-b)

we write our equations

         m (v₀ - v₁) = M v₂                       (1)

         m (v₀ - v₁) (v₀ + v₁) = M v₂²

let's divide these equations

         v₀ + v₁ = v₂

Let's look for the final speeds

we substitute in equation 1

          m (v₀ - v₁) = M (v₀ + v₁)

          v₀ (m -M) = (m + M) v₁

          v₁ = \frac{m-M}{m + M}   v₀

we substitute in equation 1 to find v₂

            \frac{M}{m}  v₂ = v₀ -  \frac{m-M}{m+M}   v₀

            v₂ = \frac{m}{M}  ( 1 - \frac{m-M}{m+M} ) \ v_o

            v₂ = \frac{m}{M}  ( \frac{2M}{m+M} ) \ \ v_o

            v₂ = \frac{2m}{m +M}  \ v_o  

Let's analyze the results for inelastic collision with each ball that collides with the sail, the total mass becomes larger so the speed increase is smaller and smaller.

In the case of elastic collision, the increase in speed is constant with each ball since the total mass remains invariant.

Consequently, greater speed will be obtained for the elastic collision, that is, the ball will bounce.

Electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of 525 nm appears as green light to the human eye. Calculate the frequency of this l
12345 [234]

Answer:

5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................. Equation 1

Where v = speed of the electromagnetic radiation, λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation, f = frequency

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: λ = 525 nm = 5.25×10⁻⁷ m,

Constant: Speed of electromagnetic wave (v) = 3.0×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = (3.0×10⁸)/(5.25×10⁻⁷)

f = 5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

Hence the frequency of light is 5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

Two circles are drawn in a 12-inch by 14-inch rectangle. Each circle has a diameter of 6 inches. If the circles do not extend be
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

d = 10 inch

Explanation:

The farthest distance between the centers, is along the diagonal of the rectangle. Therefore, we need to calculate the diagonal of the rectangle, but counting the fact that we have both circles.

So if, one side is 12 inch, and the other is 14 inch, we can use the Pitagoras theorem which is:

d = √(a²) + (b)²

Where a and b, are the lenght of the rectangle, but without the lenght  of the diameter of both circles.

With this, the expression is this:

d = √(14 - 6)² + (12 - 6)²

d = √64+36

d = √100

d = 10 inches
