<span>This question can be solved as follows:

A discount offered = (100-18)(100-12)/(100*100)
B discount offered = (100-17)(100-13)/(100*100)</span>

Answer:

Manufacturer A: 0.2784 or 27.84%

Manufacturer B: 0.2779 or 27.79%

Therefore, there is not much of a relevant difference but still manufacturer A has a better offer.

Explanation:

calculating the equivalent final discount rate using the formula:

FD= [1- (1-D1(%)) x (1-D2(%))]

D1: first discount to retail price (%)

D2: second discount to the first net price (%)

FD: Final equivalent discount rate (%)

observation: the expression can always be expanded to add more chain discounts using the same principles.

*Manufacturer A 18/12

Chain Discount: D1= 18 D2= 12

FD= [1- (1- 0.18) x (1-0.12)] ≅ 0.2784

* Manufacturer B 17/13

Chain Discount: D1= 17 D2= 13

FD= [1- (1- 0.17) x (1-0.13)] ≅ 0.2779

Very high-energy objects and events spit out very high-energy photons, so the instrument you need in order to detect them is the X-ray telescope. <em>(C) </em>

Inconveniently, X-ray telescopes only work when they're up in orbit, because X-rays get seriously soaked up in Earth's atmosphere, and most of them never make it down to the surface ... (lucky for us !) .

Spacetime interval: What is the interval between two events if in some given inertial reference frame the events are separated b

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

a. $\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2$

b. $\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2$

c. $\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2$

Explanation:

The spacetime interval $\Delta s^2$ is given by

$\Delta s ^2 = \Delta (c t) ^ 2 - \Delta \vec{x}^2$

please, be aware this is the definition for the signature ( + - - - ), for the signature (- + + + ) the spacetime interval is given by:

$\Delta s ^2 = - \Delta (c t) ^ 2 + \Delta \vec{x}^2$ .

Lets work with the signature ( + - - - ), and, if needed in the other signature, we can multiply our interval by -1.

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (7.5 \ 10 \ m)^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 5,625 m^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 3 \ s)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (899,377,374 \ m)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2 - 5,625 m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (5 \ 10 \ m)^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 0.58 \ s)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (173,879,625.6 \ m)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2 - 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (5 \ 10 \ m)^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 58 \ s)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (1.73879 \ 10^{10} \ m)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2 - 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2$

A football punker attempts to kick the football so that it lands on the ground 67.0 m from where it is kicked and stays in the a

Flauer [41]

To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations. We will find the two components of velocity and finally by geometric and vector relations we will find both the angle and the magnitude of the vector. In the case of horizontal speed we have to

$v_x = \frac{x}{t}$

$v_x = \frac{67}{4.5}$

$v_x = 14.89m/s$

The vertical component of velocity is

$-h = v_y t -\frac{1}{2} gt^2$

Here,

h = Height

g = Gravitational acceleration

t = Time

$v_y$ = Vertical component of velocity

$-1.23 = v_y(4.5)-\frac{1}{2} (9.8)(4.5)^2$

$-1.23= 4.5v_y - 99.225$

$v_y = 21.77m/s$

The direction of the velocity will be given by the tangent of the components, then

$tan\theta = \frac{v_y}{v_x}$

$\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{21.77}{14.89})$

$\theta = 55.59\°$

The magnitude is given vectorially as,

$|V| = \sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}$

$|V| = \sqrt{14.89^2 +21.77^2}$

$|V| = 26.37m/s$

Therefore the angle is 55.59° and the velocity is 26.37m/s

VMariaS [17]

Hi there!

Impulse = Change in momentum

I = Δp = mΔv = m(vf - vi)

Where:

m = mass of object (kg)

vf = final velocity (m/s)

vi = initial velocity (m/s)

Begin by converting grams to kilograms:

1 kg = 1000g ⇒ 145g = .145kg

Now, plug in the given values. Remember to assign directions since velocity is a vector. Let the initial direction be positive and the opposite be negative.

I = (.145)(-20 - 17) = -5.365 Ns

The magnitude is the absolute value, so:

|-5.365| = 5.365 Ns
