A bowling ball traveling with constant speed hits the pins at the end of a bowling lane 16.5 m long. The bowler hears the sound

of the ball hitting the pins 2.80 s after the ball is released from his hands. What is the speed of the ball, assuming the speed of sound is 340 m????s?

Answer:

5.997m/s

Explanation:

We were told to calculate the speed of the ball,

Given speed of sound as 340 m

And we know that the sound of the ball hitting the pins is at 2.80 s after the ball is released from his hands.

Speed of ball = distance traveled/(time of hearing - time the sound travels).

Speed= S/t

Where S= distance traveled

t= time of hearing - time the sound travels

time=time for ball to roll+timefor sound to come back.

time of sound=16.5/340

=0.048529secs

solving for speedof ball

Then,Speed of ball = distance traveled/(time of hearing - time the sound travels).

=16.5/(2.80-0.048529) m/s = 5.997m/s

Therefore, the speed of the ball is

5.997m/s

(a) Differentiate the position vector to get the velocity vector:

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = (3.00 m/s) <em>t</em> <em>i</em> - (4.00 m/s²) <em>t</em>² <em>j</em> + (2.00 m) <em>k</em>

<em>v</em><em>(t)</em> = d<em>r</em>/d<em>t</em> = (3.00 m/s) <em>i</em> - (8.00 m/s²) <em>t</em> <em>j</em>

<em></em>

(b) The velocity at <em>t</em> = 2.00 s is

<em>v</em> (2.00 s) = (3.00 m/s) <em>i</em> - (16.0 m/s) <em>j</em>

<em></em>

(c) Compute the electron's position at <em>t</em> = 2.00 s:

<em>r</em> (2.00 s) = (6.00 m) <em>i</em> - (16.0 m) <em>j</em> + (2.00 m) <em>k</em>

The electron's distance from the origin at <em>t</em> = 2.00 is the magnitude of this vector:

||<em>r</em> (2.00 s)|| = √((6.00 m)² + (-16.0 m)² + (2.00 m)²) = 2 √74 m ≈ 17.2 m

(d) In the <em>x</em>-<em>y</em> plane, the velocity vector at <em>t</em> = 2.00 s makes an angle <em>θ</em> with the positive <em>x</em>-axis such that

tan(<em>θ</em>) = (-16.0 m/s) / (3.00 m/s)   ==>   <em>θ</em> ≈ -79.4º

or an angle of about 360º + <em>θ</em> ≈ 281º in the counter-clockwise direction.

shusha [124]

Answer:

Rectangular path

Solution:

As per the question:

Length, a = 4 km

Height, h = 2 km

In order to minimize the cost let us denote the side of the square bottom be 'a'

Thus the area of the bottom of the square, A = a^{2}

Let the height of the bin be 'h'

Therefore the total area, A_{t} = 4ah

The cost is:

C = 2sh

Volume of the box, V = a^{2}h = 4^{2}\times 2 = 128            (1)

Total cost, C_{t} = 2a^{2} + 2ah            (2)

From eqn (1):

h = \frac{128}{a^{2}}

Using the above value in eqn (1):

C(a) = 2a^{2} + 2a\frac{128}{a^{2}} = 2a^{2} + \frac{256}{a}

C(a) = 2a^{2} + \frac{256}{a}

Differentiating the above eqn w.r.t 'a':

C'(a) = 4a - \frac{256}{a^{2}} = \frac{4a^{3} - 256}{a^{2}}

For the required solution equating the above eqn to zero:

\frac{4a^{3} - 256}{a^{2}} = 0

\frac{4a^{3} - 256}{a^{2}} = 0

a = 4

Also

h = \frac{128}{4^{2}} = 8

The path in order to minimize the cost must be a rectangle.
