How to create a water ripple experiment

1 answer:

5 0

I once had to create a water ripple experiment. I took a tote covered the bottom with rocks then filled the tote half way full with water. i made a ramp out of a shoebox or similar and took a bouncy ball and rolled it down the ramp. The thing I should have done is have something so you could tell how strong the wave was.

I don't know if your teacher would take this When I did it we were talking about natural disasters so ask your teacher first!

f your risk-aversion coefficient is A = 4 and you believe that the entire 1926–2015 period is representative of future expected

siniylev [52]

Answer:

The portfolio should invest 48.94% in equity while 51.05% in the T-bills.

Explanation:

As the complete question is not given here ,the table of data is missing which is as attached herewith.

From the maximized equation of the utility function it is evident that

$Weight=\frac{E_M-r_f}{A\sigma_M^2}$

For the equity, here as

$Weight$ is percentage of the equity which is to be calculated
${E_M-r_f}$ is the Risk premium whose value as seen from the attached data for the period 1926-2015 is 8.30%
$A$ is the risk aversion factor which is given as 4.
$\sigma_M$ is the standard deviation of the portfolio which from the data for the period 1926-2015 is 20.59

By substituting values.

$Weight=\frac{E_M-r_f}{A\sigma_M^2}\\Weight=\frac{8.30\%}{4(20.59\%)^2}\\Weight=0.4894 =48.94\%$

So the weight of equity is 48.94%.

Now the weight of T bills is given as

$Weight_{T-Bills}=1-Weight_{equity}\\Weight_{T-Bills}=1-0.4894\\Weight_{T-Bills}=0.5105=51.05\%\\$

So the weight of T-bills is 51.05%.

The portfolio should invest 48.94% in equity while 51.05% in the T-bills.

Stars combine Hydrogen to make Helium during nuclear fusion. Living things are made of heavier elements like Carbon, Oxygen, Iro

alex41 [277]

They were formed in the nuclear fusion reaction inside older stars.

As a star burns, fusion reactions inside its core create heavier elements. Those materials are released when the star dies of old age in an explosion.

Katena32 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Parallax method is used for finding the distance of objects in space there are two types of parallax method that is stellar parallax and trigonometric parallax.The disadvantage of using parallax method is that it can can not reach so far in the Galaxy due to this reason parallax method is generally not used for measuring distance in galaxy.

When you boil potatoes, will your cooking time be reduced with vigorously boiling water instead of gently boiling water? (Direct

lara [203]

Answer:

The cooling time will not be reduced.

Explanation:

The time to cook is virtually the same in both types, vigorously and gently boiling water.

The reason cooking of spaghetti calls for vigorously boiling water is to keep the pasta agitated so that they do not stick to one another.

The temperature of boiling water is the same for both vigorously boiling water and gently boiling water, therefore there will be little time difference in when the potatoes will cook when it is done with vigorously boiling water than when it is cooked with gently boiling water.

However cooking potatoes in vigorously boiling water may cause the water to dry up on time and the potatoes get burnt.
