Answer:

276 days

Explanation:

1/4 th of the original means <u><em>2 half lives</em></u>

1 half life = 138 days

So,

2 half lives = 276 days

The MAC is 58 inches, The CG limits are from 26% to 43% MAC. If the CG is found to be
eimsori [14]

By working with percentages, we want to see how many inches is the center of gravity out of the limits. We will find that the CG is 1.45 inches out of limits.

<h3>What are the limits?</h3>

First, we need to find the limits.

We know that the MAC is 58 inches, and the limits are from 26% to 43% MAC.

So if 58 in is the 100%, the 26% and 43% of that are:

  • 26% → (26%/100%)*58in = 0.26*58 in = 15.08 in
  • 43% → (43%/100%)*58in = 0.43*58 in = 24.94 in.

But we know that the CG is found to be 45.5% MAC, then it measures:

(45.5%/100%)*58in = 0.455*58in = 26.39 in

We need to compare it with the largest limit, so we get:

26.39 in - 24.94 in = 1.45 in

This means that the CG is 1.45 inches out of limits.

You collect some more data on that horse at a later time interval, but now you are measuring thehorse’s velocity, not its positi
Monica [59]

Answer:

a)  x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3

b) x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m

Explanation:

Note: The position of the horse is x = 2m. There is a typing error in the question. Otherwise, The solution to cubic equation holds a negative value of time t.

Given:

- v(t) = 10 + 2*t^2 (radar gun)

- x*(t) = 10 + 5t^2 + 3t^3  (our coordinate)

Find:

-The position x of horse as a function of time t in radar system.

-The position of the horse at x = 2m in our coordinate system

Solution:

- The position of horse according to radar gun:

                              v(t) = dx / dt = 10 + 2*t^2

- Separate variables:

                              dx = (10 + 2*t^2).dt

- Integrate over interval x = 0 @ t= 0

                             x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3

- time @ x = 2 :

                              2 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3

                              0 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3 + 2

- solve for t:

                              t = 0.1875 s

- Evaluate x* at t = 0.1875 s

                              x*(0.1875) = 10 + 5(0.1875)^2 + 3(0.1875)^3

                              x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m
