Answer: elastic (e = 2.43)

Explanation:

The price elasticity formulae is given below as

Elasticy of price = change in quantity demanded / change in price.

P1 =$2.60, P2 = $6.30, q1 =17 and q2 = 8

e = q2 - q1/ P2 - P1

e = 8 - 17/ 6.30 - 2.60

e = - 9 /3.7

e = - 2.43

We take the modulus of e to have a positive value. Hence e = 2.43

Since e is greater than 1, then the elasticity of demand is elastic

Monochromatic light of wavelength 385 nm is incident on a narrow slit. On a screen 3.00 m away, the distance between the second
LiRa [457]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the concept of overlap and constructive interference.

For this purpose we have that the constructive interference in waves can be expressed under the function

a sin\theta = m\lambda

Where

a = Width of the slit

d = Distance of slit to screen

m = Number of order which represent the number of repetition of the spectrum

\theta = Angle between incident rays and scatter planes

At the same time the distance on the screen from the central point, would be

sin\theta = \frac{y}{d}

Where y = Represents the distance on the screen from the central point

PART A ) From the previous equation if we arrange to find the angle we have that

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{y}{d})

\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{1.4*10^{-2}}{3})

\theta = 0.2673\°

PART B) Equation both equations we have

a sin\theta = m\lambda

a \frac{y}{d} = m\lambda

Re-arrange to find a,

a = \frac{(2)(385*10^{-9})(3)}{(1.4*10^{-2})}

a = 1.65*10^{-4}m

A car and a train move together along straight, parallel paths with the same constant cruising speed v(initial). At t=0 the car
kogti [31]

Answer:

t_1 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

t_2 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

Δd = v_it_1 = v_i^2/a_i

Explanation:

As v(t) = v_i + at, when the car is making full stop, v(t_1) = 0 . a = -a_i . Therefore,

0 = v_i - a_it_1\\v_i = a_it_1\\t_1 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

Apply the same formula above, with v(t_2) = v_i and a = a_i, and the car is starting from 0 speed,  we have

v_i = 0 + a_it_2\\t_2 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

As s(t) = vt + \frac{at^2}{2}. After t = t_1 + t_2, the car would have traveled a distance of

s(t) = s(t_1) + s(t_2)\\s(t_1) = (v_it_1 - \frac{a_it_1^2}{2})\\ s(t_2) = \frac{a_it_2^2}{2}

Hence s(t) = (v_it_1 - \frac{a_it_1^2}{2}) + \frac{a_it_2^2}{2}

As t_1 = t_2 we can simplify s(t) = v_it_1

After t time, the train would have traveled a distance of s(t) = v_i(t_1 + t_2) = 2v_it_1

Therefore, Δd would be 2v_it_1 - v_it_1 = v_it_1 = v_i^2/a_i

Molodets [167]

Answer:

4x

Explanation:

Use v^{2} = u^{2} +2as to do the question.

For first instance,

0 = v^{2} +2ax -------------------( 1 )

for second instance,

0 = (2v)^{2} +2as-----------------( 2 )

So by (1) and (2),

s = 4x
