A farmer learns of a new type of corn that is supposed to have a higher yield of ears. From previous crops, he knows approximate

ly how many ears of corn 10 plants will produce from the original seeds. The farmer decides to plant the new type of corn to determine if the seeds will produce a higher number of ears of corn. He plants the first 100 seeds of the new type of corn seeds in the field he uses for corn. When it is time to harvest, he randomly selects 10 plants and counts the number of ears. The farmer compares the number of ears with the yield he received the previous year from 10 plants using the original corn seeds. Because the new type of corn produced a higher number of ears, he concludes that the new type of corn does produce more ears of corn. Which of the following statements is not true about this experimental design?
Because the farmer used the seeds from the top of the packet and did not randomly select the seeds, the conclusion is suspect.
Because the farmer used a comparison between the yield of the new type of corn and the yield from the previous corn seeds, the conclusion is valid.
There may be other variables that affected the yield of corn between this year’s crop and last year’s crop; therefore, the conclusion would be suspect.
Because the farmer did not have two groups growing at the same time, one with the new type of corn and one with the original type of corn, the conclusion may be suspect.

A Ferris Wheel 22.0m in diameter rotates once every 12.5s. What is the ratio of a persons apperenet weight to her real weight (a
AnnZ [28]
  <span>Acceleration of a passenger is centripetal acceleration, since the Ferris wheel is assumed at uniform speed: 
a = omega^2*r 

omega and r in terms of given data: 
omega = 2*Pi/T 
r = d/2 

Thus: 
a = 2*Pi^2*d/T^2 

What forces cause this acceleration for the passenger, at either top or bottom? 

At top (acceleration is downward): 
Weight (m*g): downward 
Normal force (Ntop): upward 

Thus Newton's 2nd law reads: 
m*g - Ntop = m*a 

At top (acceleration is upward): 
Weight (m*g): downward 
Normal force (Nbottom): upward 

Thus Newton's 2nd law reads: 
Nbottom - m*g = m*a 

Solve for normal forces in both cases. Normal force is apparent weight, the weight that the passenger thinks is her weight when measuring by any method in the gondola reference frame: 
Ntop = m*(g - a) 
Nbottom = m*(g + a) 


Substitute a: 
Ntop = m*(g - 2*Pi^2*d/T^2) 
Nbottom = m*(g + 2*Pi^2*d/T^2) 

We are interested in the ratio of weight (gondola reference frame weight to weight when on the ground): 
Ntop/(m*g) = m*(g - 2*Pi^2*d/T^2)/(m*g) 
Nbottom/(m*g) = m*(g + 2*Pi^2*d/T^2)/(m*g) 

Simplify: 
Ntop/(m*g) = 1 - 2*Pi^2*d/(g*T^2) 
Nbottom/(m*g) = 1 + 2*Pi^2*d/(g*T^2) 

Data: 
d:=22 m; T:=12.5 sec; g:=9.8 N/kg; 

Results: 
Ntop/(m*g) = 71.64%...she feels "light" 
Nbottom/(m*g) = 128.4%...she feels "heavy"</span>

beks73 [17]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets take the number of songs he download = x

So $1.29x = $20

So "x" = 20/4.29 = 15.5

So songs he can purchase = 15 songs
