The Mississippi River is about 4,000 kilometers long. An M&M is about 1 centimeter long. There are 100 centimeters in a mete

r, and 1,000 meters in a kilometer. Estimate how many M&Ms it would take to measure the length of the Mississippi River

To be able to determine the number of M&Ms that are needed in order to measure the length of Mississippi River, we convert the units to a common one. For this purpose, we convert kilometers to centimeter such that,
 
Length of Mississippi River = (4000 km)(1000 m/1 km)(100 cm/1 m)
                       = 400,000,000 cm

Since there are 400,000,000 cm in the entire length of the river, the answer would also be 400,000,000.

Please help me thank you so much. Just not sure of my answers
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

An interesting experiment is given. We need to address various questions based on our knowledge of calculus.

Step 2

Part (a)

Time taken for the radius to grow to 2 cm = t1 = r/0.5 = 2/0.5 = 4 hours

Time taken for the radius to become 0 = t2 and the same can be obtained by solving:

r = 2 - √t2 = 0

Hence, t2 = 22 = 4 hours

Hence, the time duration of the entire experiment (from the introduction of the bacteria until its disappearance) = t1 + t2 = 4 + 4 = 8 hours

Step 3

Part (b)

r(t) = 0.5t for 0 ≤ t ≤ 4

and

r(t) = 2 - √(t - 4) for t > 2
