Answer:

0.293 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Using equations of motion,

y = 66.1 cm = 0.661 m

v = final velocity at maximum height = 0 m/s

g = - 9.8 m/s²

t = ?

u = initial takeoff velocity from the ground = ?

First of, we calculate the initial velocity

v² = u² + 2gy

0² = u² - 2(9.8)(0.661)

u² = 12.9556

u = 3.60 m/s

Then we can calculate the two time periods at which the basketball player reaches ths height that corresponds with the top 10.5 cm of his jump.

The top 10.5 cm of his journey starts from (66.1 - 10.5) = 55.6 cm = 0.556 m

y = 0.556 m

u = 3.60 m/s

g = - 9.8 m/s²

t = ?

y = ut + (1/2)gt²

0.556 = 3.6t - 4.9t²

4.9t² - 3.6t + 0.556 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation

t = 0.514 s or 0.221 s

So, the two time periods that the basketball player reaches the height that corresponds to the top 10.5 cm of his jump are

0.221 s, on his way to maximum height and

0.514 s, on his way back down (counting t = 0 s from when the basketball player leaves the ground).

Time spent in the upper 10.5 cm of the jump = 0.514 - 0.221 = 0.293 s.

A certain firm has plants A, B, and C producing respectively 35%, 15%, and 50% of the total output. The probabilities of a non-d

Sliva [168]

Answer:

There is a 44.12% probability that the defective product came from C.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be formulated as the following problem:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}$

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

-In your problem, we have:

P(A) is the probability of the customer receiving a defective product. For this probability, we have:

$P(A) = P_{1} + P_{2} + P_{3}$

In which $P_{1}$ is the probability that the defective product was chosen from plant A(we have to consider the probability of plant A being chosen). So:

$P_{1} = 0.35*0.25 = 0.0875$

$P_{2}$ is the probability that the defective product was chosen from plant B(we have to consider the probability of plant B being chosen). So:

$P_{2} = 0.15*0.05 = 0.0075$

$P_{3}$ is the probability that the defective product was chosen from plant B(we have to consider the probability of plant B being chosen). So:

$P_{3} = 0.50*0.15 = 0.075$

So

$P(A) = 0.0875 + 0.0075 + 0.075 = 0.17$

P(B) is the probability the product chosen being C, that is 50% = 0.5.

P(A/B) is the probability of the product being defective, knowing that the plant chosen was C. So P(A/B) = 0.15.

So, the probability that the defective piece came from C is:

$P = \frac{0.5*0.15}{0.17} = 0.4412$

There is a 44.12% probability that the defective product came from C.

A population of bacteria is growing exponentially. At 7:00 a.m. the mass of the population is 12 mg. Five hours later it is 14 m

sergejj [24]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth function is given by

$N(t)=N_oe^{mt}$

where

$N(t)$ is the population of the bacteria at any time 't'

$N_o$ is the population of the bacteria at any time 't = 0'

'm' is a constant and 't' is time after 7.00 a.m in hours

Assuming we start our measurement at 7.00 a.m as reference time t = 0

Thus we get $N(0)=N_oe^{m\times 0}\\\\12=N_o$

Now since it is given after 5 hours the population becomes 14 mg thus from the above relation we get

$12\times e^{m\times 5}=14\\\\e^{5m}=\frac{14}{12}\\\\m=\frac{1}{5}\cdot ln(\frac{14}{12})\\\\m=0.031$

Thus the population of bacteria at any time 't' is given by

$N(t)=12e^{0.031t}$

Part a)

Population of bacteria after another 5 hours equals the population after 10 hours from start

$N(10)=12e^{0.031\times 10}=16.361mg$

Part b)

Population of bacteria at 7:00 p.m is mass after 12 hours

$N(1)=12e^{0.031\times 12}=17.41mg$

Part c)

Population of bacteria at 8:00 p.m is mass after 1 hour

$N(1)=12e^{0.031\times 1}=12.3378mg$

Part d)

Differentiating the relation of population with respect to time we get

$N'(t)=\frac{d(12\cdot e^{0.031t})}{dt}\\\\N'(t)=12\times 0.031=0.372e^{0.031t}$

Thus we can see that the percentage increase varies with time initially the percentage increase is 37.2% but this percentage increase increases with increase in time

Part 4)

Since there are 24 hours in 1 day thus the percentage increase in the population is

$\frac{N(24)-N_o}{N_o}\times 100\\\\=\frac{25.25-12}{12}\times 100=110.42$

Thus there is an increase of 110.42% in the population each day.
