Complete question:

A student throws a heavy ball downward off the top of a building with a speed of 18m/s. The ball reaches a speed of 41m/s just before striking the ground. Neglect drag, find the height of the building.

Answer:

The height of the building is 69.235 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the ball, u = 18 m/s

final velocity of the ball, v = 41 m/s

The height of the building is equal to distance traveled by the ball downward.

Apply the following kinematic equation;

v² = u² + 2gh

where;

g is acceleration due to gravity

h is height of the building

41² = 18² + 2(9.8)h

1681 = 324 + 19.6h

19.6h = 1681 - 324

19.6h = 1357

h = 1357 / 19.6

h = 69.235 m

Therefore, the height of the building is 69.235 m

Answer:

We want to find:

\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{\sqrt[n]{n!} }{n}

Here we can use Stirling's approximation, which says that for large values of n, we get:

n! = \sqrt{2*\pi*n} *(\frac{n}{e} )^n

Because here we are taking the limit when n tends to infinity, we can use this approximation.

Then we get.

\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{\sqrt[n]{n!} }{n} = \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{\sqrt[n]{\sqrt{2*\pi*n} *(\frac{n}{e} )^n} }{n} =  \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n}{e*n} *\sqrt[2*n]{2*\pi*n}

Now we can just simplify this, so we get:

\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{e} *\sqrt[2*n]{2*\pi*n} \\

And we can rewrite it as:

\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{e} *(2*\pi*n)^{1/2n}

The important part here is the exponent, as n tends to infinite, the exponent tends to zero.

Thus:

\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{e} *(2*\pi*n)^{1/2n} = \frac{1}{e}*1 = \frac{1}{e}

In order to measure the dispersion of a random variable, look at its a. standard deviation. b. mean. c. expected value. d. avera
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

a. standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

Dispersion is a measure of variability in a given data i.e the level or extent of spread of a data. This can easily be measured for a random variable by considering its standard deviation.

The standard deviation would show the extent to which each value is different from the mean. Thus showing the extent of the dispersion of variables.

Therefore, to measure the dispersion of a random variable, look at its standard deviation.
