It is known that a certain kind of algae in the Dead Sea can double in population every 2 days. Suppose that the population of a

lgae grows exponentially, beginning now with a population of 1,000,000. (a) How long it will take for the population to quadruple in size?

Answer:

4 days

Explanation:

1,000,000*4=4,000,000(total size after quadrupling)

1,000,000*2=2,000,000(after 2 days.)

2,000,000*2=2,000,000(after 4 days.)

therefore it will take 4 days to quadruple in size

Answer:

SKID

Explanation:

In general, airplane tracks are flat, they do not have cant, consequently the friction force is what keeps the bicycle in the circle.

Let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the horizontal x-axis and the vertical y-axis.

Y axis y

     N- W = 0

     N = W

X axis (radial)

        fr = m a

the acceleration in the curve is centripetal

         a = \frac{v^2}{r}

the friction force has the expression

        fr = μ N

we substitute

       μ mg = m v²/r

       v = \sqrt{\mu g r}

we calculate

      v = \sqrt{0.1 \ 9.8 \ 3}

      v = 1,715 m / s

to compare with the cyclist's speed let's reduce to the SI system

        v₀ = 18 km / h (1000 m / 1 km) (1 h / 3600 s) = 5 m / s

We can see that the speed that the cyclist is carrying is greater than the speed that the curve can take, therefore the cyclist will SKID

You are in your car at rest when the traffic light turns green. You place your coffee cup on the horizontal dash and hit the gas
umka21 [38]

Answer:

(d) Negative.

Explanation:

let's test each at a time.

(a) It can't be 0, because cup would slide back other wise.

(b) Positive, well if forward is positive, than the work done against the forward acceleration must be negative , so it can't be positive.

(c) Equal to non-conservative work done by the car's engine.

well no, because work done by car's engine dosen't go all of it into getting car to move, so it can't be that.

(d) negative, this look like it, because work that friction does must be nagative to counteract positive thrust of car which is positive and in forward direction.

(d) this can't be true.

So the answer is (d) negative.

In the problem below, what is the student showing?
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

S<em>tudent showing the volume of cube</em>

                      V = a³

                       if a = 3 cm

  Then volume is a³ = 3 ×3 × 3

                                 = 27 cm³

By what factor must the amplitude of a sound wave be decreased in order to decrease the intensity by a factor of 3?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Amplitude is decreased by a factor of \sqrt3 if intensity is decreased by a factor of 3.

Explanation:

Intensity of a sound wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude.

Therefore, if intensity is I and amplitude is A, then

I=kA^2, where, k is constant of proportionality.

Now, if intensity of sound wave is decreased by a factor of 3. So,

New intensity is, I_{new}=\frac{I}{3}

I_{new}=kA_{new}^2\\\frac{I}{3}=kA_{new}^2

Plug in kA^2 for I. This gives,

\frac{kA^2}{3}=kA_{new}^2\\A_{new}^2=\frac{A^2}{3}\\A_{new}=\sqrt{\frac{A^2}{3}}=\frac{A}{\sqrt{3}}

Therefore, amplitude is decreased by a factor of \sqrt3.
