Answer:

See explanation for step by step explanations.

Explanation:

Let X be the mass of a randomly selected resistor

The probability density function is given as

, 80<x<120

=0, otherwise

a) By using the given pdf we have to find the probability of the resistors having resistance less than 90

=

=

=0.0625

the probability of the resistors having resistance less than 90 is 0.0625

Step 2 of 4<

/p>

b) we have to find the mean resistance

Mean=

=

=

=106.67

The mean resistance is 106.67

Flura [38]

Mr. spoke is travelling with speed v = 9.4c.

Mr. spoke is apparently unknowing of  theory of special relativity by Einstein. The theory states that moving clock tick slower than stationery clock.

Time elapse =∆t = 3 weeks

(In earth stationery frame)

Time ellipse= ∆t' = 1 week

(In the frame of rocket)

∆t' = ∆t'/γ

1/y² = 1 - v²/c²

∆t'²/∆t² =

=1²/3²

=1/9

c= 3×10⁸m/s

on solving above equation we get :

v = 9.4c

He was spreading around at close to the speed of light.

Experience significant time dilatation.

He is travelling with speed  v = 9.4c.

A maser is a laser-type device that produces electromagnetic waves with frequencies in the microwave and radio-wave bands of the
rusak2 [61]

Answers:

a) T=7.04(10)^{-10} s

b) 5.11(10)^{12} cycles

c) 2.06(10)^{26} cycles

d) 46000 s

Explanation:

<h2>a) Time for one cycle of the radio wave</h2>

We know the maser radiowave has a frequency f of 1,420,405,751.786 cycles/s

In addition we know there is an inverse relation between frequency and time T:

f=\frac{1}{T} (1)

Isolating  T: T=\frac{1}{f} (2)

T=\frac{1}{1,420,405,751.786 cycles/s} (3)

T=7.04(10)^{-10} s (4) This is the time for 1 cycle

<h2>b) Cycles that occur in 1 h</h2>

If 1h=3600s and we already know the amount of cycles per second 1,420,405,751.786 cycles/s, then:

1,420,405,751.786 \frac{cycles}{s}(3600s)=5.11(10)^{12} cycles This is the number of cycles in an hour

<h2>c) How many cycles would have occurred during the age of the earth, which is estimated to be 4.6(10)^{9} years?</h2>

Firstly, we have to convert this from years to seconds:

4.6(10)^{9} years \frac{365 days}{1 year} \frac{24 h}{1 day} \frac{3600 s}{1 h}=1.45(10)^{17} s

Now we have to multiply this value for the frequency of the maser radiowave:

1,420,405,751.786 cycles/s (1.45(10)^{17} s)=2.06(10)^{26} cycles This is the number of cycles in the age of the Earth

<h2>d) By how many seconds would a hydrogen maser clock be off after a time interval equal to the age of the earth?</h2>

If we have 1 second out for every 100,000 years, then:

4.6(10)^{9} years \frac{1 s}{100,000 years}=46000 s

This means the maser would be 46000 s off after a time interval equal to the age of the earth

You're driving down the highway late one night at 21 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 35 m in front of you. Your reaction tim
andreev551 [17]

Speed with which initially car is moving is 21 m/s

Reaction time = 0.50 s

distance traveled in the reaction time d = v t

d = 21 * 0.50 = 10.5 m

deceleration after this time = -10 m/s^2

now the distance traveled by the car after applying bakes

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2a d

0 - 21^2 = 2(-10)d

d = 22.05 m

so total distance moved before it stop

d = 22.05 + 10.5 = 32.55 m

so the distance from deer is 35 - 32.55 = 2.45 m

now to find the maximum speed with we can move we will assume that we will just touch the deer when we stop

so our distance after brakes are applied is d = 35 - 10.5 = 24.5 m

again by kinematics

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 ad

0 - v^2 = 2(-10)(24.5)

v = 22.1 m/s

so maximum speed would be 22.1 m/s
