Sam is walking across a bridge and accidentally drops an orange into the river basin below

Answer:

We assume that the orange is dropped at t = 0s.

Once the orange is on the air, the only force acting on it is the gravitational force, then the acceleration of the orange is the gravitational acceleration.

A(t) = -32.17 ft/s^2

Where the negative sign is because this acceleration points downwards.

For the velocity equation, we need to integrate over time, we will get:

V(t) = (-32.17 ft/s^2)*t + V0

Where V0 is the initial vertical velocity of the orange, because the orange is accidentally dropped, this initial velocity is equal to zero.

V(t) =   (-32.17 ft/s^2)*t

For the position equation we need to integrate again, this time we get:

P(t) = (1/2)*(-32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2 + P0

Where P0 is the initial height of the orange, we know that it is 40ft, then the position equation is:

P(t) =  (1/2)*(-32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2 + 40 ft

Now that we know the equation, we can graph it. (you can see the graph below)

Now we also want to find at what time does the orange hit the water.

This happens when:

P(t) = 0 ft =   (1/2)*(-32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2 + 40 ft

We just need to solve that equation for t.

0 ft =   (1/2)*(-32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2 + 40 ft

(1/2)*(32.17 ft/s^2)*t^2 =  40 ft

t^2 = (40ft)/( (1/2)*(32.17 ft/s^2))

t = √(  (40ft)/( (1/2)*(32.17 ft/s^2)) ) = 1.58 s

The orange hits the water 1.58 seconds after it is dropped.

Tom [10]

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

H_0: \sigma^{2} \leq 0.0008\\\\H_a:  \sigma^{2} > 0.0008

The testing states value is:

\to x^2=\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\sigma^2}=32.6250

therefor the \rho - \ value = 0.2931

Through out the above equation its values Doesn't rejects the H_0 value, and its  sample value doesn't support the claim that although the configuration of its dependent variable has been infringed.
