We are given the description of an enclosure that has fencing on 3 sides and can use 3,056 yards of fencing. We are to find the

dimensions that will maximize the area contained within the fence. A rectangle formed along a straight portion of a river. The rectangle is formed by the river (a long side), a long side of fence labeled y, and two short sides of fence labeled x. Let y represent the length of fence that is opposite the river and x represent the length of each length of fence perpendicular to the river. As there are 3,056 yards of fencing available, the sum of the lengths of the sides of the enclosure results in

Answer:

The sum of the lengths of the sides is 2292 yards and the sum of the lengths of the triangle is 3056 yards

Explanation:

Since y represents the length of fence that is opposite (parallel) to the river and x represent the length of fence perpendicular to the river.

Therefore since we can use 3,056 yards of fencing

Side perpendicular to the river = x and,

Side opposite to the river = y = 3056 - 2x

The area of the rectangle formed (A) = Perpendicular side × Parallel side

∴ A = x(3056 - 2x) = 3056x - 2x²

A = 3056x - 2x²

To maximize the area, A' (dA/dx) = 0

∴ A' = 3056 - 4x = 0

3056 - 4x = 0

4x = 3056

x = 764 yards

y =  3056 - 2x = 3056 - 2(764) = 1528 yards.

Side perpendicular to the river = 764 yards and,

Side opposite to the river = 1528 yards

The sum of the lengths of the sides = 764 + 1528 = 2292 yard and the sum of the lengths of the triangle = 764 + 764 + 1528 = 3056 yards

Ali is whirling a 2.0 kg bunch of bananas in a circular path having a radius of 0.50 m. The bananas complete 2 revolutions every
skad [1K]

Answer:

1) 2.467 N

2) a) 0.248m

   b) 2.3π rad/sec

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of Banana bunch ( m ) = 2.0 kg

radius of circular path ( R ) = 0.5 m

number of revolutions completed = 2

Time to complete 2 revolutions = 6 seconds

1) Determine the force to keep the motion constant for one complete revolution in every 4 seconds

F = mv^2 / r ----- ( 1 )

where V = 2πR/T

where : R = 0.5 , m = 2, T = 4 seconds

Insert values into equation 1

F = 2 * 4π^2 * 0.5/4^2

 = 2.467 N

2a) Calculate the maximum distance of coin from center

angular velocity ( w ) = v/r

coefficient of static friction  ( μ ) = 0.25

F_{c} = u mg  ---- ( 1 )

mv^2/r = μmg --- ( 2 )        cancelling the mass on both sides eqn 2 becomes

v^2 = μ*g*r

dividing both sides of equation by r^2

w^2 = μ*g/r

hence determine distance ( r ) of coin from center

r = 0.25 * 9.81 / π^2 =  0.248 m

2b ) determine the maximum speed of rotation of the turntable for the coin to move relative to the turntable without slipping

distance coin is placed ( r ) = 4.7 cm = 0.047 m

find speed of rotation ( w )

w^2 =  μ*g/r

w = √ 0.25 * 9.81/ 0.047

   = 7.2236 rad/secs ≈  2.3π rad/sec

A sample of an ideal gas at Pi is initially confined to one chamber of the apparatus represented above, and the other chamber is
stiv31 [10]

If the gas is ideal, the internal energy depends only on the temperature. Therefore, when an ideal gas expands freely, its temperature does not change.

When the valve of the chamber opens, the ideal gas expands and since, it is free to move its entropy increases. Entropy is a measure of uncertainty or randomness. Thus, ΔS becomes positive.
