Victor has 100 trading cards, each with a distinct power level between 101 and 200 inclusive. Whenever he heads out, he always r

andomly selects 21 cards to bring with him just in case he meets a fellow collector. Prove that no matter which 21 cards he brings, Victor will always be able to select 4 of those cards that exhibit the following property:
Let the average power level of all 4 cards bep. The cards can be split into two pairs, each of which also has an average power level of p.

Answer:

Victor will always be able to select 4 of those cards with the following property

Explanation:

Number of trading cards = 100

victor selects 21 cards

let the 4 cards be labelled : A,B,C and D

The average power level of : A,B,C,D = ( A + B + C + D )/ 4 = P

let the two pairs be : ( A + B ) and ( C + D )

note: average power of each pair = P  and this shows that

( A + B ) = ( C + D ) for Victor to select 4 cards out of the 21 cards that exhibit the same property

we have to check out the possible choices of two cards out of 21 cards yield distinct sums.

= C(21,2)=(21x20)/2 = 210.

from the question the number of distinct sums that can be created using 101  through 200 is < 210 .

hence it is impossible to get 210 distinct sums therefore Victor will always be able to select 4 of those cards

Answer:

A. U_0 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

B. U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{6d}

C. U_2 = \dfrac{K\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

Explanation:

The capacitance of a capacitor is its ability to store charges. For parallel-plate capacitors, this ability depends the material between the plates, the common plate area and the plate separation. The relationship is

C=\dfrac{\epsilon A}{d}

C is the capacitance, A is the common plate area, d is the plate separation and \epsilon is the permittivity of the material between the plates.

For air or free space, \epsilon is \epsilon_0 called the permittivity of free space. In general, \epsilon=\epsilon_r \epsilon_0 where \epsilon_r is the relative permittivity or dielectric constant of the material between the plates. It is a factor that determines the strength of the material compared to air. In fact, for air or vacuum, \epsilon_r=1.

The energy stored in a capacitor is the average of the product of its charge and voltage.

U = \dfrac{QV}{2}

Its charge, Q, is related to its capacitance by Q=CV (this is the electrical definition of capacitance, a ratio of the charge to its voltage; the previous formula is the geometric definition). Substituting this in the formula for U,

U = \dfrac{CV^2}{2}

A. Substituting for C in U,

U_0 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

B. When the distance is 3d,

U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2\times3d}

U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{6d}

C. When the distance is restored but with a dielectric material of dielectric constant, K, inserted, we have

U_2 = \dfrac{K\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

A particle is moving along a projectile path where the initial height is 160 feet with an initial speed of 144 feet per second.
Leviafan [203]
Assuming Earth's gravity, the formula for the flight of the particle is: 

<span>s(t) = -16t^2 + vt + s = -16t^2 + 144t + 160. </span>

<span>This has a maximum when t = -b/(2a) = -144/[2(-16)] = -144/(-32) = 9/2. </span>

<span>Therefore, the maximum height is s(9/2) = -16(9/2)^2 + 144(9/2) + 160 = 484 feet. </span>

Two blocks connected by a rope of negligible mass are being dragged by a horizontal force (see figure below). Suppose F = 65.0 N
vovangra [49]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

g = 9.8 m/s², and air resistance is ignored.

For mass m₁:
The normal reaction is m₁g.
The resisting force is R₁ = μm₁g.

For mass m₂:
The normal reaction is m₂g.
The resisting force is R₂ = μm₂g.

Let a =  the acceleration of the system.
Then
(m₁ + m₂)a = F - (R₁ + R₂)
(14+26 kg)*(a m/s²) = (65 N) - 0.098*(9.8 m/s²)*(14+26 kg)
40a = 65 - 38.416 = 26.584
a = 0.6646 m/s²

Answer:  0.665 m/s²  (nearest thousandth)
