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

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 10 sec

For first half,

We need to calculate the height

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2gh

h =\dfrac{v^2}{2g}....(I)

For second half,

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

h =ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2

h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2

t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}}

Put the value of h from equation (I)

t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times v^2}{g^2}}

t_{2}=\dfrac{v}{g}

According to question,

t_{1}+t_{2}=10

t_{1}=t_{2}

Put the value of t₁ and t₂

\dfrac{v}{g}+\dfrac{v}{g}=10

\dfrac{2v}{g}=10

v=\dfrac{10\times g}{2}

Here, g = 10

The initial velocity is

v=\dfrac{10\times10}{2}

v=50\ m/s

Hence, The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

Which occurs when a wave is reflected?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: The wave can flip upside down.

Reflection is the bending of a wave when it cannot pass through. For example, plain mirrors which are flat, a ray of light hits the mirror and is reflected from the mirror since it cannot pass through  

When reflection occurs the speed and frequency of the wave does not change but the wave is flipped upside down.

The speed does not change because speed is affected by the change in medium the frequency also remains the same since the energy of the wave does not change.
