In order for the ball to be used in the game, it must be able to meet the minimum and maximum weight requirements. These are the limits of the weight of the ball. If it exceeds the maximum limit of 16 ounces or below the minimum limit of 14 ounces, the ball will not be approved.

So, by adding 1.5 ounces, that would mean that the initial weight of the ball did not reach the minimum limit. The initial weight of the ball, denoted as x, have two possible values. The first value is the initial weight plus added with 1.5 ounces would reach 14 ounces.

x + 1.5 = 14
x = 12.5 ounces

The other scenario is when the initial weight is added to reach the maximum requirement of 16 ounces

x + 1.5 = 16
x = 14.5 ounces

From both answer, we could conclude that the initial weight has to be 12.5 ounces. If the initial weight were 14.5 ounces to begin with, there should be no need for air. It cans till be approved to be used.

The equation of motion for a weight suspended from a particular spring is given by p(t)=2sint3+5cost3p(t)=2sin⁡t3+5cos⁡t3, where
daser333 [38]
The given displacement at time, t, is
p(t) = 2 sin(t³) + 5 cos(t³)

The initial equilibrium position is
p(0) = 5

To determine future equilibrium postions, define
f(t) = p(t) - 5 = 2 sin(t³) + 5 cos(t³ - 5
The derivative of f(t) is
f'(t) = (3t²)[2 cos(t³) - 5sin(t³)]

Equilibrium is established when f(t) = 0.
To solve this equation numerically, we shall use the Newton-Raphson method, given by.
t(n+1) = t(n) - f[t(n)]/f'[(t(n)], n=0,1,2, ...,

As a guess, let (0) = 1.
The iterative solution for t is shown below.

  n         t(n)
 ---   -----------
   0   1.0000
   1    0.9344
   2   0.9147
   3   0.9130
   4   0.9130

The solution converges rapidly to t = 0.913 s.
The graphical solution (shown below) confirms the numerical solution.

Answer:
The weight first reaches the equilibrium position in 0.913 sec.

The difference of two numbers is 16 and the sum of their squares is 130. What are the numbers.
Korvikt [17]
x - y = 16
x^2 + x^2 = 130

----------------
x^2 - y^2 = 256
+(x^2 + y^2 = 130)
2x^2 = 386
x^2 = 193
x = <span>13.892 (3DP)
----
</span>x - y = 16
13.892 - y = 16
-y = 2.108
y = -2.108
The numbers are: 13.892 and -2.108
