uppose the weights of Farmer Carl's potatoes are normally distributed with a mean of 9 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.8 ou

nces. (a) Carl only wants to sell the best potatoes to his friends and neighbors at the farmer's market. According to weight, this means he wants to sell only those potatoes that are among the heaviest 25%. What is the minimum weight required to be brought to the farmer's market?

Answer:

x= 9.53 ounces

Explanation:

Given that

Mean ,μ= 9 ounces

Standard deviation ,σ=0.8 ounces

He wants to sell only those potatoes that are among the heaviest 25%.

P=25% = 0.25

When P= 0.25 then Z=0.674

Lest take x is the the minimum weight required to be brought to the farmer's market.

We know that

x = Z . σ + μ

x= 0.674 ₓ 0.8 + 9 ounces

x= 9.53 ounces

I am trying to find the magnitude of a resultant vector. Do i take inconsideration the negatives when i find the x & y compo
attashe74 [19]
Absolutely !  If you have two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite
directions, then one of them is the negative of the other.  Their correct
vector sum is zero, and that's exactly the magnitude of the resultant vector.

(Think of fifty football players pulling on each end of the rope in a tug-of-war. 
Their forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, and the flag that
hangs from the middle of the rope goes nowhere, because the resultant
force on it is zero.)

This gross, messy explanation is completely applicable when you're totaling up
the x-components or the y-components.

Walt ran 5 kilometers in 25 minutes going eastward what is his average velocity
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

1/5 km/min

Explanation:

the formula for velocity is distance/time

so if i plug in the distance and time i get 5/25 or 1/5

Hope this helps!

3. How does the wavelength of green different from violet-indigo?​
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

As the full spectrum of visible light travels through a prism, the wavelengths separate into the colors of the rainbow because each color is a different wavelength. Violet has the shortest wavelength, at around 380 nanometers, and red has the longest wavelength, at around 700 nanometers.

Find the force necessary to start the crate moving, given that the mass of the crate is 32 kg and the coefficient of static fric
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

178.75 N

Explanation:

The force necessary to start moving the crate must be equal to or more than the frictional force (resistive force) acting on the crate but moving in an opposite direction to the frictional force.

So, we find the frictional force, Fr:

Fr = -μmg

Where μ = coefficient of friction

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

The frictional force is negative because it acts against the direction of motion of the crate.

Fr = -0.57 * 32 * 9.8

Fr = - 178.75 N

Hence, the force necessary to move the crate must be at least equal to but opposite in direction to this frictional force.

Therefore, this force is 178.75 N
