A buoy floating in the ocean is bobbing in simple harmonic motion with period 5 seconds and amplitude 4ft. Its displacement d fr

om sea level at time =t0 seconds is −4ft, and initially it moves upward. (Note that upward is the positive direction.) Give the equation modeling the displacement d as a function of time t.

Answer:

d=-4Cos(\frac{2\pi}{5}t)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Period =5 s

Amplitude=4 ft

Displacement d from sea level at time t=0s=-4 ft

We have to find the modelling equation displacement d as a function of time.

We know that

The general equation of sinusoidal function is given by

y(t)=Acos(Bt-C)+D

B=\frac{2\pi}{period}=\frac{2\pi}{5}

When t=0, y=d=-4 ft, D=0

Substitute the values then we get

-4=4Cos(\frac{2\pi}{5}(0)-C)+0

-4=4Cos(-C)

Cos(-C)=-1

We know that Cos(-x)=Cos x

Cos C=-1

Cos C=Cos \pi  (cos(\pi)=-1)

C=\pi

Substitute the values then, we get

d=4Cos(\frac{2\pi}{5}t-\pi)+0

d=4Cos(-(\pi-\frac{2\pi}{5}t))

d=4Cos(\pi-\frac{2\pi}{5}t)

Cos(\pi-x)=-Cosx

d=-4Cos(\frac{2\pi}{5}t)

Dante runs 7 miles in 60 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would he run in 24 minutes?
denis23 [38]
<h2>Answer: 2.8 miles</h2>

Step-by-step:

We can write it in the proportion \frac{7}{60} = \frac{x}{24}

where x is our number of miles trying to find

We now cross multiply or use the butterfly method which I will demonstrate both

<h3>Cross Multiply</h3>

We multiply the numerator with the dominator

so 7 multiplied by 24

and 60 multiplied by x

7*24=60x

168=60x

\frac{168}{60} =\frac{60x}{60}

2.8=x or x=2.8

Now for the

<h3>Butterfly Method </h3>

You would do 7 times 24 divided by 60 or \frac{7*24}{60}

Then\frac{168}{60} simplify

2.8 so 2.8 miles in either method

In an experiment, a ball is drawn from an urn containing 11 orange balls and 8 blue balls. If the ball is orange, three coins ar
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a) 4

b) 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, when an orange ball is drawn, three coins are tossed. So, sample points are   OHHH, OHHT, OHTH, OHTT. OTHH, 0THT, OTTH, OTTT

So, clearly, 8 sample points will have an orange ball.

When a blue ball is drawn, two coins are tossed. So, sample points are BHH,BHT,BTH,BTT.

So, clearly, 4 samples points will when a blue ball is drawn.

Total samples points=4+8=12
