Answer:
Answer for the question :
"the two boxcars A and B have a weight of 20 000 Ib and 30 000 Ib, respectively. If they coast freely down the incline when the brakes are applied to all the wheels of car A causing it to skid, determine the force in the coupling C between the two cars. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheels of A and the tracks is μk=0.5. The wheels of car B are free to roll. Neglect their mass in calculation."
is explained in the attachment.
Explanation:
Answer:
The general rule of thumb is that the SMALLER a substance's atoms and the STRONGER the bonds, the harder the substance. Two of the strongest forms of chemical bonds are the ionic and covalent bonds.
Explanation:
Answer: the standard deviation STD of machine B is s (Lb) = 0.4557
Explanation:
from the given data, machine A and machine B produce half of the rods
Lt = 0.5La + 0.5Lb
so
s² (Lt) = 0.5²s²(La) + 0.5²s²(Lb) + 0.5²(2)Cov (La, Lb)
but Cov (La, Lb) = Corr(La, Lb) s(La) s(Lb) = 0.4s (La) s(Lb)
so we substitute
s²(Lt) = 0.25s² (La) + 0.25s² (Lb) + 0.4s (La) s(Lb)
0.4² = 0.25 (0.5²) + 0.25s² (Lb) + (0.5)0.4(0.5) s(Lb)
0.64 = 0.25 + s²(Lb) + 0.4s(Lb)
s²(Lb) + 0.4s(Lb) - 0.39 = 0
s(Lb) = { -0.4 ± √(0.16 + (4*0.39)) } / 2
s (Lb) = 0.4557
therefore the standard deviation STD of machine B is s (Lb) = 0.4557
