A pickup truck and a hatchback car start at the same position. If the truck is moving at a constant 33.9m/s and the hatchback ca
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

s = 589.3 m

Explanation:

Let the truck and car meet at a distance = s  m

The truck is moving at constant velocity = v

so s= v * t ---------- (1)

car:

Vi = 0 m/s

a = 3.9 m/s²

s = Vi* t + 1/2 a t²

s= 0 * t +  1/2 a t²

s =  1/2 a t²   ----------- (2)

compare equation (1)  and equation (2)

s= v * t = 1/2 a t²

⇒ v * t = 1/2 a t²

⇒ t = 2 * v/ a

⇒ t = (2 * 33.9 )/ 3.9

⇒ t = 17. 38 s

Now

from equation (1)

s= v * t

s= 33.9 * 17.38

⇒ s = 589.3 m

f your risk-aversion coefficient is A = 4 and you believe that the entire 1926–2015 period is representative of future expected
siniylev [52]

Answer:

The portfolio should invest 48.94% in equity while 51.05% in the T-bills.

Explanation:

As the complete question is not given here ,the table of data is missing which is as attached herewith.

From the maximized equation of the utility function it is evident that

Weight=\frac{E_M-r_f}{A\sigma_M^2}

For the equity, here as

  • Weight is percentage of the equity which is to be calculated
  • {E_M-r_f} is the Risk premium whose value as seen from the attached data for the period 1926-2015 is 8.30%
  • A is the risk aversion factor which is given as 4.
  • \sigma_M is the standard deviation of the portfolio which from the data for the period 1926-2015 is 20.59

By substituting values.

Weight=\frac{E_M-r_f}{A\sigma_M^2}\\Weight=\frac{8.30\%}{4(20.59\%)^2}\\Weight=0.4894 =48.94\%

So the weight of equity is 48.94%.

Now the weight of T bills is given as

Weight_{T-Bills}=1-Weight_{equity}\\Weight_{T-Bills}=1-0.4894\\Weight_{T-Bills}=0.5105=51.05\%\\

So  the weight of T-bills is 51.05%.

The portfolio should invest 48.94% in equity while 51.05% in the T-bills.

The weight of a block on the inclined plane is 500 N and the angle of incline is 30 degrees. What is the magnitude of the force
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

250 N

433 N

Explanation:

N = Normal force by the surface of the inclined plane

W = Weight of the block = 500 N

f = static frictional force acting on the block

Parallel to incline, force equation is given as

f = W Sin30

f = (500) Sin30

f = 250 N

Perpendicular to incline force equation is given  

N = W Cos30

N = (500) Cos30

N = 433 N

When a golf ball is hit, it travels at 41 meters per second. The mass of a golf ball is 0.045kg. Calculate the kinetic energy of
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

  75.645 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is related to the mass and velocity by the formula ...

  KE = 1/2mv²

For the given mass of 0.045 kg, and velocity of 41 m/s, the kinetic energy is ...

  KE = 1/2(0.045 kg)(41 m/s)² = 75.645 J

__

The unit of energy, joule, is a derived unit equal to 1 kg·m²/s².
