if a car traveling at 100 m/s must slam on the brakes to avoid hitting a raccoon and it takes 4 seconds for the car to slow down

to a stop , What is its acceleration in m/s
Mathematics

1.)

Velocity is in m/s, and acceleration is in m/s^2 like you said. Because of this, we can calculate this by dividing the speed by the time it took to get to that speed.

(20 meters/second) / 10 seconds = 2 meters/ second^2

2.)

Same thing with the first one.

(100 meters/second) / 4 seconds = 25 meters / seconds^2

How can I solve the statement below?
QveST [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A ≈ 65.4°

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is intended to remind you of the trig relations associated with pairs of sides. For angle A, given sides b and c are the adjacent side and the hypotenuse, respectively. The appropriate relation is ...

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

  cos(A) = b/c

  A = arccos(b/c) = arccos(2.5/6)

  A ≈ 65.4°

A pond forms as water collects in a conical depression of radius a and depth h. Suppose that water flows in at a constant rate k
Scrat [10]

Answer:

a. dV/dt = K - ∝π(3a/πh)^⅔V^⅔

b. V = (hk^3/2)/[(∝^3/2.π^½.(3a))]

The small deviations from the equilibrium gives approximately the same solution, so the equilibrium is stable.

c. πa² ≥ k/∝

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

The rate of volume of water in the pond is calculated by

The rate of water entering - The rate of water leaving the pond.

Given

k = Rate of Water flows in

The surface of the pond and that's where evaporation occurs.

The area of a circle is πr² with ∝ as the coefficient of evaporation.

Rate of volume of water in pond with time = k - ∝πr²

dV/dt = k - ∝πr² ----- equation 1

The volume of the conical pond is calculated by πr²L/3

Where L = height of the cone

L = hr/a where h is the height of water in the pond

So, V = πr²(hr/a)/3

V = πr³h/3a ------ Make r the subject of formula

3aV = πr³h

r³ = 3aV/πh

r = ∛(3aV/πh)

Substitute ∛(3aV/πh) for r in equation 1

dV/dt = k - ∝π(∛(3aV/πh))²

dV/dt = k - ∝π((3aV/πh)^⅓)²

dV/dt = K - ∝π(3aV/πh)^⅔

dV/dt = K - ∝π(3a/πh)^⅔V^⅔

b. Equilibrium depth of water

The equilibrium depth of water is when the differential equation is 0

i.e. dV/dt = K - ∝π(3a/πh)^⅔V^⅔ = 0

k - ∝π(3a/πh)^⅔V^⅔ = 0

∝π(3a/πh)^⅔V^⅔ = k ------ make V the subject of formula

V^⅔ = k/∝π(3a/πh)^⅔ -------- find the 3/2th root of both sides

V^(⅔ * 3/2) = k^3/2 / [∝π(3a/πh)^⅔]^3/2

V = (k^3/2)/[(∝π.π^-⅔(3a/h)^⅔)]^3/2

V = (k^3/2)/[(∝π^⅓(3a/h)^⅔)]^3/2

V = (k^3/2)/[(∝^3/2.π^½.(3a/h))]

V = (hk^3/2)/[(∝^3/2.π^½.(3a))]

The small deviations from the equilibrium gives approximately the same solution, so the equilibrium is stable.

c. Condition that must be satisfied

If we continue adding water to the pond after the rate of water flow becomes 0, the pond will overflow.

i.e. dV/dt = k - ∝πr² but r = a and the rate is now ≤ 0.

So, we have

k - ∝πa² ≤ 0 ---- subtract k from both w

- ∝πa² ≤ -k divide both sides by - ∝

πa² ≥ k/∝

If you multiply me by 7 add 1 and then divide by 4 you get 9 what number am I?
labwork [276]
Put the number as x and translate the English into math;
(7x+1)/4=9
Then solve for x
8x+1=36
8x=35
x=4.375 or 4 3/8
Hope this helps.

A research engineer for a tire manufacturer is investigating tire life for a new rubber compound and has built 16 tires and test
frutty [35]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for mean tire life is between 52,368.4 kilometers and 67,911 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are in posession of the sample's standard deviation, so we use the students t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 16 - 1 = 15

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 15 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975. So we have T = 2.68

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.1315*3645.94 = 7771.3

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 60139.7 - 7771.3 = 52,368.4.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 60139.7 + 7771.3 = 67,911.

The 95% confidence interval for mean tire life is between 52,368.4 kilometers and 67,911 kilometers.
