Answer:

<u>The correct answer is A. 7,665'000,000 kilowatt-hours per year and B. 766,500 households.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us for solving the questions:

Power capacity of the wind farms = 2,500 Megawatts or 2.5 Gigawatts

2. Let's resolve the questions a and b:

Part A

Assuming wind farms typically generate 35​% of their​ capacity, how much​ energy, in​ kilowatt-hours, can the​ region's wind farms generate in one​ year?

2,500 * 0.35 = 875 Megawatts

875 Megawatts = 875 * 1,000 Kilowatts = 875,000 Kilowatts

Now we calculate the amount of Kilowatts per hour, per day and per year:

875.000 Kw generated by the farms means that are capable of produce 875,000 kw per hour of energy

875,000 * 24 = 21'000,000 kilowatt-hours per day

<u>21'000,000 * 365 = 7,665'000,000 kilowatt-hours per year</u>

Part B

Given that the average household in the region uses about​ 10,000 kilowatt-hours of energy each​ year, how many households can be powered by these wind​ farms?

For calculating the amount of households we divide the total amount of energy the wind farms can generate (7,665'000,000 kilowatt-hours) and we divide it by the average household consumption (10,000 kilowatt-hours)

<u>Amount of households =  7,665'000,000/10,000 = 766,500</u>

A small military base housing 1,000 troops, each of whom is susceptible to a certain virus infection. Assuming that during the c
slava [35]

Answer:

I=\frac{1000}{exp^{0,806725*t-0.6906755}+1}

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of infection is jointly proportional to the number of infected troopers and the number of non-infected ones. It can be expressed as follows:

\frac{dI}{dt}=a*I*(1000-I)

Rearranging and integrating

\frac{dI}{dt}=a*I*(1000-I)\\\\\frac{dI}{I*(1000-I)}=a*dt\\\\\int\frac{dI}{I*(1000-I)}=\int a*dt\\\\-\frac{ln(1000/I-1)}{1000}+C=a*t

At the initial breakout (t=0) there was one trooper infected (I=1)

-\frac{ln(1000/1-1)}{1000}+C=0\\\\-0,006906755+C=0\\\\C=0,006906755

In two days (t=2) there were 5 troopers infected

-\frac{ln(1000/5-1)}{1000}+0,006906755=a*2\\\\-0,005293305+0,006906755=2*a\\a = 0,00161345 / 2 = 0,000806725

Rearranging, we can model the number of infected troops (I) as

-\frac{ln(1000/I-1)}{1000}+0,006906755=0,000806725*t\\\\-\frac{ln(1000/I-1)}{1000}=0,000806725*t-0,006906755\\-ln(1000/I-1)=0,806725*t-0.6906755\\\\\frac{1000}{I}-1=exp^{0,806725*t-0.6906755}  \\\\\frac{1000}{I}=exp^{0,806725*t-0.6906755}+1\\\\I=\frac{1000}{exp^{0,806725*t-0.6906755}+1}
