Vint is testing ceiling fans in a factory. For one of the tests, he switches the fan on, and after it attains a maximum speed of

500 rotations per minute (rpm), he switches the fan back off, recording the amount of time it takes for the fan to completely stop spinning. The given equation models Vint's test, where x represents time in seconds and y represents the speed in rotations per minute. The equation has been graphed as shown.
Assuming that the test was complete when the fan stopped spinning completely, how long was the test?

A. 100 seconds

B. 10 seconds

C. 20 seconds

D. 500 seconds

Answer:

20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

y=-5x^2+100x

Where x  represents time in seconds and y represents the speed in rotations per minute.

To Find : Assuming that the test was complete when the fan stopped spinning completely, how long was the test?

Solution:

Since we are supposed to find how long will it take to stop the fan completely

We assumed that  test was complete when the fan stopped spinning completely

i.e. y = Speed = 0

So, Substitute y = 0 in the equation    y=-5x^2+100x

⇒0=-5x^2+100x

⇒5x^2=100x

⇒5x=100

⇒x=\frac{100}{5}

⇒x=20

Thus it took 20 seconds to stop the fan

Hence the test was 20 seconds long.

Answer:

C. 20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to know when y=0

The first y is when it started and the second y=0 is when it stops

Looking at the graph y=0 at x=0 and  y=0 at x=20

The fan started at time 0 and stopped at 20 seconds

If dy/dx = y cos x and y = 3 when x = 0, then y =....? Here are the answer choices
creativ13 [48]
Dy/dx = y cos x
y = Ae^sin(x)
y(0) = Ae^sin(0) = A = 3
A = 3

Therefore, y = 3e^(sinx)

Calculate the second moment of area of a 4-in-diameter shaft about the x-x and yy axes, as shown.
Keith_Richards [23]
Second moment of area about an axis along any diameter in the plane of the cross section (i.e. x-x, y-y) is each equal to (1/4)pi r^4.
The second moment of area about the zz-axis (along the axis of the cylinder) is the sum of the two, namely (1/2)pi r^4.

The derivation is by integration of the following:
int int y^2 dA
over the area of the cross section, and can be found in any book on mechanics of materials.
