Initial velocity of the billet is maximum, once out if the rifle it begins to slow down
Answer: The answer position may vary. But the correct answer is D. No; Raul changes more than one variable so the results will be invalid.
Explanation:
Raul's experimental set-up will not produce valid results because he intends to change more than one variable.
One variable that Raul will change is the pot size. According to the description, however, Raul will also change one other variable—the type of flower that is planted. Even though Raul plans on using flowers only, he should use the same type of flower in each pot, not different types.
Valid results are only produced when only one variable is changed at a time.
Answer:
2.726472 s more or 1.5874 times more time is taken than 10-lb roast.
Explanation:
Given:
- The cooking time t is related the mass of food m by:
t = m^(2/3)
- Mass of roast 1 m_1 = 20 lb
- Mass of roast 2 m_2 = 10 lb
Find:
how much longer does a 20-lb roast take than a 10-lb roast?
Solution:
- Compute the times for individual roasts using the given relation:
t_1 = (20)^(2/3) = 7.36806 s
t_2 = (10)^(2/3) = 4.641588 s
- Now take a ration of t_1 to t_2, to see how many times more time is taken by massive roast:
t_1 / t_2 = (20 / 10)^(2/3)
- Compute: t_1 / t_2 = 2^(2/3) = 1.5874 s
- Hence, a 20-lb roast takes 1.5874 times more seconds than 10- lb roast.
t_2 - t_1 = 2.726472 s more
