The number of hours, t, that bacteria spread 10-fold can be modeled by the equation B(t) = B0(10)2t. There are 25 bacteria prese

nt initially and a biologist wishes to find out how many hours will elapse until there are 55,000 bacteria present. What is the exact value for the number of hours elapsed, t, in the equation 55,000 = 25(10)2t?

Answer: 1.67 hours.


Explanation:


1) Function that models the number of bacteria:


B(t)=B_0(10)^{2t}


2) Bo = 25, then the function is:


B_0=25(10)^{2t}


3) To know how many hours will elpase until the number of bactaria is 55,00, you equals B to 55,500 in the equation and solve for t, in this way:


i) start

55000=25(10)^{2t)


ii) division property

2200=10^{2t}


iii) antilogarithm property

2t = log_{10}2200


iv) division property

t=\frac{log_{10}2200}{2}


v) Due the operations:


t = 1.67 hours.


Note that the time is less than 2 hours. That sounds fine since after 1 hour there will be 10 times 25 (250 bacteria), and after 2 hours 100 times 25 (2500 bacteria).

A projectile is fired with muzzle speed 220 m/s and an angle of elevation 45° from a position 30 m above ground level. Where doe
Allushta [10]

Answer:

  • 4968.6 m from where it was fired
  • 221.33 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

For the purpose of this problem, we assume ballistic motion over a stationary flat Earth under the influence of gravity, with no air resistance.

We can divide the motion into two components, one vertical and one horizontal. For muzzle speed s and launch angle θ, the horizontal speed is presumed constant at s·cos(θ). The initial vertical speed is then s·sin(θ) and the (x, y) coordinates as a function of time are ...

  (x, y) = (s·cos(θ)·t, -4.9t² +s·sin(θ)·t + h₀) . . . . . where h₀ is the initial height

To find the range, we can solve the equation y=0 for t, and use this value of t to find x.

Using the quadratic formula, we find t at the time of landing to be ...

  t = (-s·sin(θ) - √((s·sin(θ))²-4(-4.9)(h₀)))/(2(-4.9))

  t = (s/9.8)(sin(θ) +√(sin(θ)² +19.6h₀/s²))

For s = 220, θ = 45°, and h₀ = 30, the time of flight is ...

  t ≈ 31.939 seconds

Then the horizontal travel is

  x = 220·cos(45°)·31.939 ≈ 4968.6 . . . . meters

__

As it happens, the value under the radical in the above expression for time, when multiplied by s, is the vertical speed at landing. The horizontal speed remains s·cos(θ), so the resultant speed is the Pythagorean sum of these:

  landing speed = s·√(cos(θ)² +sin(θ)² +19.6h₀/s²) ≈ s√(1 +0.012149)

  ≈ 221.33 m/s

_____

Note that the landing speed represents the speed the projectile has as a consequence of the potential energy of its initial height being converted to kinetic energy that adds to the kinetic energy due to its initial muzzle velocity.
