Answer:

\left \| v(t) \right \|=\sqrt{c^2k^2+b^2}

\left \| a(t) \right \|=ck^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r(t) denotes position of the roller coaster.

Let r(t)=\left ( c\sin kt,c\cos kt,h-bt \right )

Differentiate with respect to t

v(t)=r'(t)=\left ( ck\cos kt,-ck\sin kt,-b \right )

Here, v(t) denotes velocity.

Differentiate again with respect to t

a(t)=v'(t)=\left ( -ck^2\sin kt,-ck^2\cos kt,0 \right )

Here, a(t) denotes acceleration.

Magnitude of velocity:

\left \| v(t) \right \|=\sqrt{c^2k^2\cos ^2kt+c^2k^2\sin ^2kt+b^2}=\sqrt{c^2k^2\left ( \cos ^2kt+\sin ^2kt \right )+b^2}=\sqrt{c^2k^2+b^2}

Magnitude of acceleration:

\left \| a(t) \right \|=\sqrt{c^2k^4\sin ^2kt+c^2k^4\cos ^2kt+0^2}=\sqrt{c^2k^4\left ( \cos ^2kt+\sin ^2kt \right )}=\sqrt{c^2k^4}=ck^2

Suppose the population of a town is 9,800 and is growing 2% each year. a. Write an equation to model the population growth. b. P
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general exponential growth model is defined as

f(x)=a(1+r)^x

Where, a is initial value, r is growth rate and x is time.

The initial population of town is 9800 and growth rate is 2%. The population growth model is defined as

f(x)=9800(1+\frac{2}{100})^x

f(x)=9800(1+0.02)^x

f(x)=9800(1.02)^x

Put x=7 to find the estimated population after 7 years.

f(x)=9800(1.02)^7

f(x)=11257.119543\approx 11257

Therefore the correct option is A.
