6. An ostrich cannot fly, but it is able to run fast. Suppose an ostrich runs east for 7.95 s and then runs 161 m south, so that

the magnitude of the ostrich's resultant displacement is 226 m. Calculate the magnitude of the ostrich's eastward component.

Answer:

159 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

It was stated that if the ostrich ran towards the east direction in 7.95 s, let say the distance from the starting point is O towards the east side E, let called the distance towards the east side to be OE.

Again, the ostrich then runs in the south direction for 161 m, let the distance be OS.

Also, let the magnitude of the resultant displacement between the east direction to the south direction be ES = 226m.

We are to find, the magnitude of the ostrich's eastward component.

i.e. The distance traveled from the center to the east direction within the time frame of 7.95 s.

Using the Pythagoras rule:

ES² = OE² + OS²

226² = OE² + 161²

226² -  161² = OE²

OE²  =  226² -  161²

OE²  = 51076 - 25921

OE²  =  51076 - 25921

OE²  =  25155

OE = \sqrt{25155}

OE =  158.60 m

OE ≅ 159 m

Thus, the magnitude of the ostrich's towards the eastward component. = 159 m.

Omg, I need help! A builder is buying property where she can build new houses. The line plot shows the sizes for each house. 1/6
klemol [59]

Answer:

Average size of the lots = ⅓ acre

Step-by-step explanation:

The question incomplete without specifying what we are to determine.

Question:A builder is buying property where she can build new houses. The line plot shows the sizes for each house. 1/6 has 6 X's 1/3 has 3 X's and 1/2 has 6 X's. Organize the information in a line plot. What is the average size of the lots? _________ acre

Help anyone?

Solution:

We are asked to organize the information in a line plot. See attachment for the line plot.

Given: 1/6 has 6 X's 1/3 has 3 X's and 1/2 has 6 X'sIn no particular order, the sizes of the lots are:1/6, 1/6, 1/6, 1/6, 1/6, 1/6, 1/3, 1/3, 1/3, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2 and 1/2 acre.

Let's count the number of lot for each size given.

For 1/6: there are 6 X's on the line plot of 1/6 number of lot for 1/6

= the lot × number of times it occurs

= (1/6) × 6 = 6/6 = 1 acre

For 1/3: there are 3 X's on the line plot of 1/3 number of lot for 1/3 = the lot × number of times it occurs

= (1/3) × 3 = 3/3 = 1 acre

For 1/2: there are 6 X's on the line plot of 1/2 number of lot for 1/2

= the lot × number of times it occurs

= (1/2) × 6 = 6/2= 3 acres

To find average size of the lots, we would sum all lot for each given size then divide by the total number of lots given.Sum of all lot for each given size = 1+1+3

Sum of all lot for each given size = 5

The total number of lots given = 15

Average size of the lots = 5/15 = 1/3

Average size of the lots = ⅓ acre
