A professional soccer player succeeds in scoring a goal on 84% of his penalty kicks. assume that the success of each kick is ind

ependent. (a) in a series of games, what is the probability that the first time he fails to score a goal is on his fifth penalty kick? (b) what is the probability that he scores on 5 or fewer of his next 10 penalty kicks? (c) suppose that our soccer player is out of action with an injury for several weeks. when he returns, he only scores on 5 of his next 10 penalty kicks. is this evidence that his success rate is now less than 84%? explain.

A. Using the geometric probability:  .84^4 * (1-.84) = 0.07966; this means that <span>the probability that he makes his first * the probability he makes his second * the probability he makes his third * the probability he makes his fourth * the probability he misses his fifth. 

b. P (X<= 5) = binomcdf (10, 0.84, 5) = 0.0130

c. From the answer in B, if the success rate of the player still continues at 84%, the probability that he will score 5 or few goals in the 10 penalty kicks will still remain at 0.0130. This is quite low, we should examine him about whether he can still hit at 84% of his shots. So given from this data, we could say that his penalty kick success rate has fallen below the given rate of 84%.</span>

Geometric Distributions:Deals with the number of trials required until a single success.
 Geometric random variable: the number of trials (y) it takes to get a success in a geometric setting.
 When do you use it? To find first success or failure
 Calculator Commands
 When it takes more than n trials...1-geometcdf(p,n)
 When it take n trials... geometpdf(p,x)
 When it it takes a max of n trials...geometcdf(p,x)
 a. geometcdf(.16,5) = .0797
 b. binomcdf(10,.84,5) = .013
 c. From par b. if the soccer player's succes rate were still 84%, the probability that he would score 5 or few goals in 10 penalty kicks is 0.0130. This is so low thatwe should be suspicious about whether he can still hit 84% of his shots. We have convincing that his penalty kick success rate has fallen below 84%

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The answer is 0.8 m

Explanation:

According the attached diagram, if we take the momentum in the point 0:

\frac{m_{D}*5.1 }{2} =m_{J} *X

Where

mD = mass of Diane = 64.2 kg

mJ = mass of Jack = 93.6 kg

Replacing:

X=\frac{\frac{64.2*5.1}{2} }{93.6} =1.75m

\frac{L}{2} -X=Y=\frac{5.1}{2} -1.75\\Y=0.8m

A 5 kg wooden block sitson a flat straight-away12 meters fromthe bottom of an infinitely long ramp, which has an angle of 20 deg
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

(a) 19.71801m/s Velocity just before going up the ramp.

(b) 74.56338m.

Explanation:

We will solve it in two parts, first we will calculate time that 5kg wooden block would take to just reach ramp and with this time we will calculate final velocity that the wooden block would have in this time.

Second, we will calculate the component of velocity vector along inclined plane and the time that it would take for velocity to be 0 meters/s then with this time we will calculate the distance that inclined plane would travel along inclined plane.

Following formulas will be used.

                                  x(t) = \frac{1}{2} t^2 = 12m =16.2m/s^2 t^2

                                 F =ma

                                 V(t) = V_{o} +at

                                 x(t) = x_{0} +v_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}a t^2

(a) Calculating velocity right before going up the ramp.

 Wooden block is going on a straightaway and has net for on it.

         F_{n} =F-F_{s} = F-uF_{n}  = 100N-0.4*9.8m/s^2*5kg =81N

     and this force produces acceleration of

      a = \frac{F}{m}=\frac{81}{5} =16.2m/s^2 .

With this acceleration, wooden block would reach at the foot of ramp in.

          x(t) = 12m = 16.2m/s^2*t^2

         t = 1.217s

and final velocity will be

v(t) = v_{0}+at = 0+16.2m/s^2*1.2171s = 19.7180m/s.

this velocity of wooden box just before going up the ramp.

(b) How far up the ramp will the wooden block go before stopping.

Ramp is at 20° relative to horizontal therefore velocity along the ramp that the wooden block would have will be.

                              V= V_{h}cos(20) = 18.5288m/s

and deceleration along the ramp is

                              a = \frac{F_{s} }{m}

 Where F_{s} force of friction along the inclined plane.

F_s =  uF_n = u*m*a

a = 9.8m/s^2*cos(20) = 9.2089m/s^2

is a component of g along normal of the inclined plane.

                               F_{s} = 0.25*5kg*9.2089m/s^2

                              = 11.5112N

                              a = \frac{11.5112N}{5kg} = 2.3022m/s^2

And with this deceleration time needed to get wooded block to stop is.

                     v(t) = v_o-at = 18.5288m/s-2.3022m/s^2*t = 0

                        t = \frac{18.5288m/s}{2.3022m/s^2} =8.04813s

 and in that time wooden block would travel

   x(8.04813s) = 18.52881m/s *8.04813s-\frac{1}{} 2.3022m/s^2*(8.0481)^2=74.56338m

This is how up wooden box will go before coming to stop.
