Problem
After five years of earning interest at an annual rate of 3%, an investment has earned $950 in interest. To the nearest whole dollar, determine the amount of the initial investment.
Result
The initial investment was $6,333.
Solution
P = I/ i · t
P = 950/ 0.03 · 5
P = 6,333.333
1 hm=100m
1.5hm=150 meters each tower is from each other.
500km(1000m/1km)=500,000 meters the wire covers.
500,000/150 = 3333.33 towers. Just because we want to be safe and have enough towers we can say we have 3334 towers in the span of 500,000 meters.
B)
1kV=1000V
500kV(1000V/1kV)= 500,000 V
There are 1.2 volts in a AA battery so we divide 500,000/1.2 = 416666.67 times larger
