The terminal velocity of a person falling through air is about 100Km/hr. The acceleration due to gravity is 10ms−2. Use this inf

ormation to find out what C is in the equation v′=C(gC−v), where g is the acceleration due to gravity and v is the velocity.

The question here is how long does it take for a falling person to reach the 90% of this terminal velocity. The computation is:

The terminal velocity vt fulfills v'=0. Therefore vt=g/c, and so c=g/vt = 10/(100*1000/3600) = 36,000/100,000... /s. Incorporating the differential equation shows that the time needed to reach velocity v is 

t= ln [g / (g-c*v)] / c. 

With v=.9 vt =.9 g/c,

t = ln [10] /c = 6.4 sec.

Jackson is playing a game of chance where he must randomly draw a marble out of a jar. He calculates the probability of drawing
Sindrei [870]

Using complementary events, considering a \frac{1}{4} probability of drawing a red marble, the probability of not drawing a red marble is of \frac{3}{4}.

<h3>What are complementary events?</h3>

They are mutually exclusive events which have the sum of their probabilities as 1.

In this problem, we consider that there is a \frac{1}{4} probability of drawing a red marble, and since drawing a red marble and drawing a non-red marble are complementary events, we have that:

\frac{1}{4} + p = 1

p = \frac{3}{4}

The probability of not drawing a red marble is of \frac{3}{4}.

Answer:

2sqrt(10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem.

x^2 + 3^2 = 7^2

x^2 + 9 = 49

x^2 = 40

x = sqrt(40)

x = 2sqrt(10)
