Answer:
Mechanical advantage = 4
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance of effort, de = 8m
Distance of ramp, dr = 2m
To find the mechanical advantage;
Mechanical advantage = de/dr
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Mechanical advantage = 8/2
Mechanical advantage = 4
Answer:
v_max = (1/6)e^-1 a
Explanation:
You have the following equation for the instantaneous speed of a particle:
(1)
To find the expression for the maximum speed in terms of the acceleration "a", you first derivative v(t) respect to time t:
![\frac{dv(t)}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[ate^{-6t}]=a[(1)e^{-6t}+t(e^{-6t}(-6))]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bdv%28t%29%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdt%7D%5Bate%5E%7B-6t%7D%5D%3Da%5B%281%29e%5E%7B-6t%7D%2Bt%28e%5E%7B-6t%7D%28-6%29%29%5D)
(2)
where you have use the derivative of a product.
Next, you equal the expression (2) to zero in order to calculate t:
![a[(1)e^{-6t}-6te^{-6t}]=0\\\\1-6t=0\\\\t=\frac{1}{6}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a%5B%281%29e%5E%7B-6t%7D-6te%5E%7B-6t%7D%5D%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C1-6t%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5Ct%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B6%7D)
For t = 1/6 you obtain the maximum speed.
Then, you replace that value of t in the expression (1):
hence, the maximum speed is v_max = ((1/6)e^-1)a
Answer:
97.5%
Explanation:
By the empirical rule (68-95-99.7),
- 68% of data are within <em>μ </em>- <em>σ</em> and <em>μ </em>+ <em>σ</em>
- 95% of data are within <em>μ </em>- 2<em>σ</em> and <em>μ </em>+ 2<em>σ</em>
- 99.7% of data are within <em>μ </em>- 3<em>σ</em> and <em>μ </em>+ 2<em>σ</em>
<em>σ </em> and <em>μ</em> are the standard deviation and the mean respectively.
From the question,
<em>μ</em> = 7.2 cm
<em>σ</em> = 0.38 cm
7.96 = 7.2 + (<em>n</em> × 0.38)
<em>n</em> = 2
Hence, 7.96 represents <em>μ </em>+ 2<em>σ</em>.
P(X < <em>μ </em>+ 2<em>σ</em>) = P(X < <em>μ</em>) + P(<em>μ</em> < X < <em>μ </em>+ 2<em>σ</em>)
P(X < <em>μ</em>) is the percentage less than the mean = 50%.
P(<em>μ</em> < X < <em>μ </em>+ 2<em>σ</em>) is half of P(<em>μ </em>- 2<em>σ</em> < X < <em>μ </em>+ 2<em>σ</em>) = 95% ÷ 2 = 47.5%.
Considering this, for apples that are no more than 7.96 cm,
P(X < 7.96) = P(X < 7.2) + P(7.2 < X < 7.96) = 50% + 47.5% = 97.5%

The speed of the snail is given by:
where S is the distance covered by the snail and t the time taken.
The snail in the problem moves by S=18 mm in t=24 s, therefore its speed is
