A particle moving in a planar force field has a position vector x that satisfies x'=Ax. The 2×2 matrix A has eigenvalues 4 and 2
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The required position of the particle at time t is: x(t)=\begin{bmatrix}-7.5e^{4t}+1.5e^{2t}\\2.5e^{4t}-1.5e^{2t}\end{bmatrix}

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided matrix.

v_1=\begin{bmatrix}-3\\1 \end{bmatrix}

v_2=\begin{bmatrix}-1\\1 \end{bmatrix}

\lambda_1=4, \lambda_2=2

The general solution of the equation x'=Ax

x(t)=c_1v_1e^{\lambda_1t}+c_2v_2e^{\lambda_2t}

Substitute the respective values we get:

x(t)=c_1\begin{bmatrix}-3\\1 \end{bmatrix}e^{4t}+c_2\begin{bmatrix}-1\\1 \end{bmatrix}e^{2t}

x(t)=\begin{bmatrix}-3c_1e^{4t}-c_2e^{2t}\\c_1e^{4t}+c_2e^{2t} \end{bmatrix}

Substitute initial condition x(0)=\begin{bmatrix}-6\\1 \end{bmatrix}

\begin{bmatrix}-3c_1-c_2\\c_1+c_2 \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-6\\1 \end{bmatrix}

Reduce matrix to reduced row echelon form.

\begin{bmatrix} 1& 0 & \frac{5}{2}\\ 0& 1 & \frac{-3}{2}\end{bmatrix}

Therefore, c_1=2.5,c_2=1.5

Thus, the general solution of the equation x'=Ax

x(t)=2.5\begin{bmatrix}-3\\1\end{bmatrix}e^{4t}-1.5\begin{bmatrix}-1\\1 \end{bmatrix}e^{2t}

x(t)=\begin{bmatrix}-7.5e^{4t}+1.5e^{2t}\\2.5e^{4t}-1.5e^{2t}\end{bmatrix}

The required position of the particle at time t is: x(t)=\begin{bmatrix}-7.5e^{4t}+1.5e^{2t}\\2.5e^{4t}-1.5e^{2t}\end{bmatrix}

A biased coin is flipped twice.
Anni [7]

Answer:

0.48.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 ways that a tail lands once:-

Tail + head or

head + tail.

Prob(Tail on one throw) = 0.4

Prob(Head on one throw) = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6.

Prob(Tail first then head) = 0.4 * 0.6 = 0.24

Head then tail has the same probability (0.6*0.4).

So the requred probability = 0.24 + 0.24

= 0.48.
