How many million Christmas trees were sold in the year 2000?

Physics
1 answer:
Sergio039 [100]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Christmas tree production occurs worldwide on Christmas tree farms, in artificial tree factories and from native strands of pine and fir trees. Christmas trees, pine and fir trees purposely grown for use as a Christmas tree, are grown on plantations in many western nations, including Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States. In Australia, the industry is relatively new, and nations such as the United States, Germany and Canada are among world leaders in annual production.

Great Britain consumes about 8 million trees annually, while in the United States between 35 and 40 million trees are sold during the Christmas season. Artificial Christmas trees are mostly produced in the Pearl River delta area of China. Christmas tree prices were described using a Hotelling-Faustmann model in 2001, the study showed that Christmas tree prices declined with age and demonstrated why more farmers do not price their trees by the foot. In 1993, economists made the first known demand elasticity estimates for the natural Christmas tree market.

Automobile A and B are initially 30 m apart travelling in adjacent highway lanes at speeds VA = 14.4 km/hr., VB 23.4 km/hr. at t
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

        x = 240 m

Explanation:

This is a kinematics exercise

Let's fix our frame of reference on car A

           x = x₀ₐ+ v₀ₐ t + ½ aₐ t²

         

the initial position of car a is zero

           x = 0 + v₀ₐ t + ½ 0.8 t²

for car B

          x = x_{ob} + v_{ob} t - ½ a_b t²

     

car B's starting position is 30 m

         x = 30 + v_{ob} t - ½ 0.4 t²

at the point where they meet, the position of the two vehicles is the same

         0 + v₀ₐ t + ½ 0.8 t² = 30 + v_{ob} t - ½ 0.4 t²

let's reduce the speeds to the SI system

        v₀ₐ = 14.4 km / h (1000 m / 1 km) (1h / 3600s) = 4 m / s

        v_{ob} = 23.4 km / h = 6.5 m / s

        4 t + 0.4 t² = 30 + 6.5 t - 0.2 t²

        0.2 t² - 2.5 t - 30 = 0

        t² - 12.5 t - 150 = 0

we solve the quadratic equation

       t = \frac{12.5 \pm \sqrt{12.5^2 + 4 \ 150}  }{2}

       t = \frac{12.5 \  \pm 27.5}{2}

       t₁ = 20 s

       t₂ = -7.5 s

time must be a positive quantity so the correct result is t = 20 s

let's look for the distance

        x = 4 t + ½ 0.8 t²

        x = 4 20 + ½ 0.8 20²

        x = 240 m

You hear a sound with a frequency of 256 Hz. The amplitude of the sound increases and decreases periodically: it takes 2 seconds
german

To solve this problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to frequency and period, and how they are related to each other.

The relationship that defines both agreements is given by the equation,

f_{beat}=\frac{1}{T}

Then the frequency for the previous period given (2sec) is

f_{beat}=\frac{1}{2}

f_{beat} = 0.5Hz

The beat frequency of two frequencies is equal to the difference between the two frequencies, then

f_{beat} = |f_1-f_2|\\f_{beat} = |256Hz-2Hz|\\f_{beat} = 254Hz

<em>Hence option A is incorrect.</em>

We can do this process for 254Hz as f_1 and 258 Hz for f_2 , then

f_{beat} =|254Hz-258Hz|

f_{beat} = 4Hz

<em>Hence option B is incorrect. </em>

We can also do this process for 255Hz as  f_1 and 257 Hz for f_2 , then

f_{beat} =|255Hz-257Hz|

f_{beat} = 2Hz

<em>Hence option C is incorrect. </em>

We can also do this process for 255.5Hz as f_1 and 256.5 Hz for f_2, then

f_{beat} =|255.5Hz-256.5Hz|\\f_{beat} = 1Hz

<em>Hence option D is incorrect. </em>

We can also do this process for 255.75Hz as f_1 and 256.25 Hz for f_2, then

f_{beat} =|255.75Hz-256.25Hz|\\f_{beat} = 0.5Hz

<em>Hence option E is incorrect. </em>

Therefore the sum of the frequencies in the sound wave would be 256.25Hz and 255.75Hz
