. In a high school graduating class of 100 students, 47 studied mathematics, 61 studied physics, and 25 studied both mathematics

and physics. If one of these students is selected at random, find the probability that (a) the student took mathematics or physics. (b) the student did not take either of these subjects. (c) the student took physics but not mathematics. Are studying mathematics and physics mutually exclusive events? Why or why not?

Answer:

given,

Probability of student studying math P(M)= $\dfrac{45}{100} = 0.45$

Probability of student studying physicsP(P) = $\dfrac{61}{100} = 0.61$

Probability of student studying both math and physics together P(M∩P) = $\dfrac{25}{100} = 0.25$

a) student took mathematics or physics

P(M∪P) = P(M) + P(P) - P(M∩P)

= 0.45 + 0.61 - 0.25

= 0.81

b) student did not take either of the subject

P((M∪P)') = 1 - 0.81

= 0.19

c) Student take physics but not mathematics

P(P∩M') = P(P) - P(P∩M)

= 0.61 - 0.25

= 0.36

studying physics and mathematics is not mutually exclusive because we can study both the subjects.

Answer:

Explanation:

height lost h = 300 sin60

= 259.8 m .

gravitational potential energy = mgh

= 5000 x 9.8 x 259.8

= 1273 x 10⁴ J

Kinetic energy

= 1/2 mv²

= .5 x 5000 x 60²

= 900 x 10⁴ J

there is loss of kinetic energy = 373 x 10⁴ J.

This loss in energy is due to kinetic friction that came into action when the sled slipped downwards.

The lost energy is converted into heat energy or thermal energy.

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

$Q=7.9\times 10^{-10}\ C$

Explanation:

Given that

V= 12 V

K=3

d= 2 mm

Area=5.00 $ 10#3 m2

Assume that

$ = Multiple sign

# = Negative sign

$A=5\times 10^{-3}\ m^2$

We Capacitance given as

For air

$C_1=\dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}$

$C_1=\dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}$

$C_1=\dfrac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 5\times 10^{-3}}{2\times 10^{-3}}$

$C_1=2.2\times 10^{-11}\ F$

$C_2=\dfrac{K\varepsilon _oA}{d}$

$C_2=\dfrac{3\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 5\times 10^{-3}}{2\times 10^{-3}}\ F$

$C_2=6.6\times 10^{-11}\ F$

Net capacitance

C=C₁+C₂

$C=8.8\times 10^{-11}\ F$

We know that charge Q given as

Q= C V

$Q=12\times 6.6\times 10^{-11}\ C$

$Q=7.9\times 10^{-10}\ C$

22N to the right and 13N to the left

Forces are in opposite directions so you subtract the bigger force from the smaller force

Magnitude of force= 22N -13N

= 9N

net force direction is to the right

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

a

$F = -1.07 *10^{-8} \ N$

b

$F_r = 1.07 *10^{-8} \ N$

Explanation:

Generally the force of attraction between this two irons is mathematically represented as

$F = \frac{k * [Q_{Li} ] * [Q_{O} ] }{ r^2}$

Here k is known as the proportionality constant with value $k = 2.31 * 10^ {-28} J \cdot m$

substituting -2 for $Q_{O}$ i.e the charge on oxygen , +1 for $Q_{Li}$ i.e the charge on Lithium and $[0.140 + 0.068 ] nm= 0.208 nm = 0.208*10^{-9}$ for r

So

$F = \frac{ 2.31 * 10^ {-28}* +1 * -2 }{ ( 0.208*10^{-9} )^2 }$

$F = -1.07 *10^{-8} \ N$

Generally the force of repulsion will be the magnitude but different direction to the force o attraction

So Force of repulsionn is

$F_r = 1.07 *10^{-8} \ N$
