Answer:

d = 32*( 1 - 0.8^n) / 0.2 = 160*( 1 - 0.8^n)

Explanation:

Given:

- The initial height of the ball h_o = 32 ft

- The successive decrease in height after every bounce = 0.8*h

Find:

- The expression relating the total distance traveled by the ball for nth number of bounce.

Solution:

- The distance traveled by the ball upto n = 1, is = 32 ft

- The distance traveled by the ball upto n = 2, is = 32 + 2*32*.8 = 83.2

- The distance traveled by the ball upto n = 3, is = 83.2 + 2*32*.8*.8 = 124.16

- We can look for a pattern for the total distance traveled by geometric progression is as such:

                            d = a*( 1 - r^n) / ( 1 - r )

Where, r = 0.8 , and a = 32

                            d = 32*( 1 - 0.8^n) / 0.2 = 160*( 1 - 0.8^n)

Where, n = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , ......

Answer:

If it falls from 32 feet, how could the distance be 29 feet? Twelve bounces later, 58 is "obviously" incorrect as well. Eliminate those two before you do anything else.

The total distance up until that the nth bounce is  

Sn = (32 - 32(.8)12) / (1 - .8) = 149.004883722... = 149

A typical ceiling fan running at high speed has an airflow of about 2.00 ✕ 103 ft3/min, meaning that about 2.00 ✕ 103 cubic feet
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

0.94 m³/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Air flow (in ft³/min) = 2×10³ ft³/min

Air flow (in m³/s) =.?

Next, we shall convert 2×10³ ft³/min to m³/min. This can be obtained as follow:

35.315 ft³/min = 1 m³/min

Therefore,

2×10³ ft³/min = 2×10³ ft³/min × 1 m³/min / 35.315 ft³/min

2×10³ ft³/min = 56.63 m³/min

Finally, we shall convert 56.63 m³/min to m³/s. This can be obtained as follow:

1 m³/min = 1/60 m³/s

Therefore,

56.63 m³/min = 56.63 m³/min × 1/60 m³/s ÷ 1 m³/min

56.63 m³/min = 0.94 m³/s

Thus, 2×10³ ft³/minis equivalent to 0.94 m³/s.
