Answer:

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance from the start point to the endpoint, displacement disregard the path taken or the amount traveled.

if you start at point A, then go to point B, and back to point A, the displacement is zero because you started and ended at the same point.

for this question, pretend you started at point A, went east 20 km to point B, and then west 8 km to point C, your displacement is 12 km. 12 km is the distance between point A and point C.

In a large restaurant an average 60% customers ask for water with their meal. A random sample of 10 customers is selected. Find

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a) $P(6)=0.25$

b) $p(x$

c) $p(x\geq3)=0.9878$

d) $\sigma=\sqrt{2.4}=1.5492$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Population percentage $p_\%=\60%$

Sample size $n=10$

Let x =customers ask for water

Let y =customers dose not ask for water with their meal

Generally the equation for y is mathematically given by

$y=1-p_\%\\y=1-0.60\\y=0.40$

Generally the equation for pmf p(x) is mathematically given by

$P(x)=10C_x (0..6)^x(0.4)^{10-x}$

Generally the probability that exactly 6 ask for water is mathematically given by

$P(x)6=10C_6 (0..6)^6(0.4)^{10-6}$

$P(6)=0.25$

Generally the probability that less than 9 ask for water with meal is mathematically given by

$p(xg)$

$p(x$

Generally the probability that at least 3 ask for water with meal is mathematically given by

$p(x\geq3)=1-p(x$

$p(x\geq3)=1-[p(0)+p(1)+p(2)]$

$p(x\geq3)=1-[0.00001+0.0015+0.0106]$

$p(x\geq3)=1-[0.0122]$

$p(x\geq3)=0.9878$

Generally the mean and standard deviation of sample size is mathematically given by

Mean

$\=x=np=10(0.6)=6$

Standard deviation

$v(x)=npq=10(0.6)(0.4)=2.4$

$\sigma=\sqrt{2.4}=1.5492$

A 2.0 kg sphere with a velocity of 6.0 m/s collides head-on and elastically with a stationary 10 kg sphere

dmitriy555 [2]

Question: A 2.0 kg sphere with a velocity of 6.0 m/s collides head-on and elastically with a stationary 10 kg sphere, What is thier velocities after collision.

Answer:

v = 6 m/s, v' = 0 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

For Elastic collision,

mu+m'u' = mv+m'v'......................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, v = final veolocity of the first sphere, v' = final velocity of the second sphere.

Also,

The relative velocity before collision = relative velocity after collision

u-u' = v-v'............................ Equation 2

Given: m = 2 kg, m' = 10 kg, u = 6 m/s, u' = 0 m/s

Substitute into equation 1 and 2

2(6)+10(0) = 2v+10v'

2v+10v' = 12.............. Equation 3

6-0 = v-v'

v-v' = 6 ................... Equation 4

Solve equation 3 and 4 simultaneously.

v = 6+v'............. Equation 5

Substitute equation 5 into equation 3

2(6+v')+10v' = 12

12+2v'+10v' = 12

12v' = 12-12

v' = 0/12

v' = 0 m/s.

Also substitute the value of v' into equation 5

v = 6+0

v = 6 m/s
