Newton’s law of cooling states that dx/dt= −k(x − A) where x is the temperature, t is time, A is the ambient temperature, and k

> 0 is a constant. Suppose that A A0 cos(ωt) for some constants A0 and ω. That is, the ambient temperature oscillates (for example night and day temperatures).a. Find the general solution.b. In the long term, will the initial conditions make much of a difference? Why or why not?

Answer:

(a) The solution to the differential equation is x = A_0Coswt + Ce^(-kx)

(b) The initial condition t > 0 will not make much of a difference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the differential equation

dx/dt= −k(x − A); t > 0, A = A_0Coswt

(a) To solve the differential equation, first separate the variables.

dx/(x - A) = -kdt

Integrating both sides, we have

ln(x - A) = -kt + c

x - A = Ce^(-kt) (Where C = ce^(-kt))

x = A + Ce^(-kx)

Now, we put A = A_0Coswt

x = A_0Coswt + Ce^(-kx) (Where C is constant.)

And we have the solution.

(b) Since temperature t ≠ 0, the initial condition t > 0 will not make much of a difference because, Cos(wt) = Cos(-wt).

It is not any different from when t < 0.

Answer:

0.967 = 96.7% probability the rock sample actually contains raritanium

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Positive reading

Event B: Contains raritanium

Probability of a positive reading:

98% of 13%(positive when there is raritanium).

0.5% of 100-13 = 87%(false positive, positive when there is no raritanium). So

P(A) = 0.98*0.13 + 0.005*0.87 = 0.13175

Positive when there is raritanium:

98% of 13%

P(A) = 0.98*0.13 = 0.1274

What is the probability the rock sample actually contains raritanium?

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1274}{0.13175} = 0.967

0.967 = 96.7% probability the rock sample actually contains raritanium

The lowest point in Death Valley is Badwater at 282 feet below sea level. The highest point in
Finger [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Badwater = -282ft

Telescope\ Peak = 11043ft

The position of badwater is negated because it is below sea level

The interpretation of the question, is to calculate the distance between the two given points.

This is calculated as:

Difference = Telescope\ Peak - Badwater

Difference = 11043ft - (-282ft)

Open bracket

Difference = 11043ft+282ft

Difference = 11325ft

<em>Hence, the distance between both is 11325ft</em>
