Time t = ?

When wave is moving from y = 0 to y =12 cm

By using the formula,

y = 15cos [(π/12) t)] = 0,

cos [(π/12) t)] = 0 = cos (π/2), so,

(π/12)t = π/2,

t = (π/2) (12/π)

t = 12/2

t = 6 sec

so 6 sec is the least amount of time required

These Russian nesting dolls are a good analogy for the strongest magnet in the world, because the magnitis were put inside each other. The magnets would be fitted together. Because they are closer together, the coils of magnet would be stronger. They would be able to magnetize better.

Twenty grams of a solid at 70°C is place in 100 grams of a fluid at 20°C. Thermal equilibrium is reached at 30°C.

zaharov [31]

Answer:

c. is more than that of the fluid.

Explanation:

This problem is based on the conservation of energy and the concept of thermal equilibrium

$heat= m s \Delta T
$

m= mass

s= specific heat

\DeltaT=change in temperature

let s1= specific heat of solid and s2= specific heat of liquid

then

Heat lost by solid= $20(s_1)(70-30)=800s_1
$

Heat gained by fluid= $100(s_2)(30-20)=1000s_2
$

Now heat gained = heat lost

therefore,

1000 S_2=800 S_1

S_1=1.25 S_2

so the specific heat of solid is more than that of the fluid.

The sound intensity of a certain type of food processor in normally distributed with standard deviation of 2.9 decibels. If the

Maru [420]

Answer: $(48.41,\ 52.19)$

Explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

$\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Given : Sample size : $n=9$

Sample mean : $\ovreline{x}=50.3\text{ decibels}$

Standard deviation : $\sigma=2.9\text{ decibels }$

Significance level : $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$

Critical value : $z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96$

Now, the 95% confidence interval estimate of the (true, unknown) mean sound intensity of all food processors of this type :-

$50.3\pm (1.96)\dfrac{2.9}{\sqrt{9}}\\\\\approx50.3\pm1.89\\\\=(50.3-1.89,\ 50.3+1.89)=(48.41,\ 52.19)$

Larger animals use proportionately less energy than smaller animals; that is, it takes less energy per kg to power an elephant t

marin [14]

Answer:

Part a)

$Q = 952 cal/day$

Part b)

$P = 46 Watt$

Part c)

$\Delta P = 54 W$

Explanation:

As we know that 5000 kg African elephant requires 70,000 Cal for basic needs per day

so we will have

$m = 5000 kg$

$Q = 70,000 Cal$

so we have energy required per kg

$E = \frac{70,000}{5000}$

$E = 14 cal/kg$

Part a)

now we know that per kg the energy required will be same

so we have mass of the human is 68 kg

so energy required per day is given as

$Q = 68 \times 14$

$Q = 952 cal/day$

Part b)

Resting power is the rate of energy in Joule required per sec

so it is given as

$P = \frac{952 \times 4186}{24\times 3600}$

$P = 46 Watt$

Part c)

resting power given in the book is

$P' = 100 W$

so this is less than the power given

$\Delta P = 100 - 46$

$\Delta P = 54 W$
