Answer:

In a distance-time graph, time is on the horizontal axis, or x-axis, and distance is on the vertical axis, or y-axis. As an object moves, the distance it travels increases with time. ... You can use the steepness, or slope, of a line in a distance-time graph to determine the speed of an object if speed is constant.

If time is the x axis and distance is the y axis then yes, in the case that time is going by but distance remains the same.

Why do some objects fall faster than others?

Answer:

Weight and Mass !!!!!!

Explanation:

Galileo discovered that objects that are more dense, or have more mass, fall at a faster rate than less dense objects, due to this air resistance. A feather and brick dropped together. Air resistance causes the feather to fall more slowly.

The sound intensity of a certain type of food processor in normally distributed with standard deviation of 2.9 decibels. If the

Maru [420]

Answer: $(48.41,\ 52.19)$

Explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

$\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Given : Sample size : $n=9$

Sample mean : $\ovreline{x}=50.3\text{ decibels}$

Standard deviation : $\sigma=2.9\text{ decibels }$

Significance level : $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$

Critical value : $z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96$

Now, the 95% confidence interval estimate of the (true, unknown) mean sound intensity of all food processors of this type :-

$50.3\pm (1.96)\dfrac{2.9}{\sqrt{9}}\\\\\approx50.3\pm1.89\\\\=(50.3-1.89,\ 50.3+1.89)=(48.41,\ 52.19)$

A 500-N weight sits on the small piston of a hydraulic machine. The small piston has area 2.0 cm2. If the large piston has area

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

W₂= 10000 N

Explanation:

Pascal´s Principle can be applied in the hydraulic press:

If we apply a small force (F1) on a small area piston A1, then, a pressure (P) is generated that is transmitted equally to all the particles of the liquid until it reaches a larger area piston and therefore a force (F2) can be exerted that is proportional to the area (A2) of the piston:

Pressure is defined as the force (F) applied per unit area (A)

P=F/A (N/m²)

P1=P2

$\frac{F_{1} }{A_{1} } = \frac{F_{2} }{A_{2} }$

$F_{2} = \frac{F_{1}*A_{2} }{A_{1}}$ Equation (1)

Data

W₁ = weight sits on the small piston

F₁ = W₁= 500 N

A₁ = 2.0 cm²

A₂ = 40 cm²

Calculation of the weight (W₂) can the large piston support

We replace data in the equation (1)

$F_{2} = \frac{(500)*(40) }{2}$

F₂ = 10000 N

W₂= F₂= 10000 N
