My Notes The displacement from equilibrium of an oscillating weight suspended by a spring is given by y(t) = 1 4 cos(5t) where y

ikadub [295]

Answer:

y(0) = 0.25 feet

$y(\frac{1}{4}) = 0.0789 \text{ feet}$

$y(\frac{1}{2}) =-0.2003 \text{ feet}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The displacement from equilibrium of an oscillating weight suspended by a spring =

$y(t) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5t)$

where y is the displacement in feet and t is the time in seconds.

Here, cos is in radians.

1) t = 0

$y(0) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(0)) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(0) = \frac{1}{4}(1) = \frac{1}{4}$

y(0) = 0.25 feet

2) t = $\frac{1}{4}$

$y(\displaystyle\frac{1}{4}) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(\frac{1}{4})) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(1.25) = \frac{1}{4}(0.31532236) =0.07883059$

$y(\frac{1}{4}) = 0.0789 \text{ feet}$

3) t = $\frac{1}{2}$

$y(\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(\frac{1}{2})) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(2.5) = \frac{1}{4}(-0.80114362) = -0.200285905$

$y(\frac{1}{2}) =-0.2003 \text{ feet}$

The negative sign indicates the opposite direction of displacement.

Some transportation experts claim that it is the variability of speeds, rather than the level of speeds, that is a critical fact

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The claim made by an expert is that driving conditions are dangerous if the variance of speeds exceeds 75 (mph)².

(1)

The hypothesis for both the test can be defined as:

H₀: The variance of speeds does not exceeds 75 (mph)², i.e. σ² ≤ 75.

Hₐ: The variance of speeds exceeds 75 (mph)², i.e. σ² > 75.

(2)

A Chi-square test will be used to perform the test.

The significance level of the test is, α = 0.05.

The degrees of freedom of the test is,

df = n - 1 = 55 - 1 = 54

Compute the critical value as follows:

$\chi^{2}_{\alpha, (n-1)}=\chi^{2}_{0.05, 54}=72.153$

Decision rule:

If the test statistic value is more than the critical value then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

(3)

Compute the test statistic as follows:

$\chi^{2}=\frac{(n-1)\times s^{2}}{\sigma^{2}}$

$=\frac{(55-1)\times 94.7}{75}\\\\=68.184$

The test statistic value is, 68.184.

Decision:

$cal.\chi^{2}=68.184$

The null hypothesis will not be rejected at 5% level of significance.

Conclusion:

The variance of speeds does not exceeds 75 (mph)². Thus, concluding that driving conditions are not dangerous on this highway.

A rotation maps point A to A’.

weeeeeb [17]

Answer: The answer is (C) 180° rotation.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the point A maps to the point A' by a rotation. We are to select the statement that describes the rotation.

In the given figure, the co-ordinates of point A are (-3, 5) and after rotation, the co-ordinates of point A' are (3, -5).

Therefore, the point (x, y) changes to (-x, -y) after rotation. This is the result of 180° rotation.

Therefore, the point A is rotated through an angle of 180° to reach at the point A'.

Thus, the correct option is (C) 180° rotation.
