Your in an escape room. Only its real and your oxygen runs out in 3 minutes unless you solve this problem, The problem :a ball i

s thrown and travels 30 inches before bouncing, It bounces and travels 50% of the distance traveled. It continues to do this until coming to rest. What is the total distance traveled by ball? Also it's cold and dark and you have no phone nor anyone to ask. You have no ball

60 inches

because if 30=50% then 60=100% so its 60 inches

The sum of the series allows to find the result for the total distance that the ball bounces is:

            total distance = 59.52 in

A series is a set of things or numbers related by a specific operation.

They indicate that the ball falls from an initial height y₀ = 30 in. and it bounces 50% of the height and the process is repeated until it stops, see attached.

Let's build a table to observe the sequence.

drop   height    rebound

   1        30          15

   2       15            7.5

   3        7.5         3.75

If we call the first term y₀  

The first bounce can be found.

                             y₁ = \frac{y_o}{2}

The second bounces.

                             y_2 = \frac{y_1}{2}  \\y_2 = \frac{y_o}{4}

The third bounce.

                             y_3  = \frac{y_2}{2}  \\y_3 = \frac{y_0}{ 8}

By observing this table we can construct a series of the form

 

      Total distance = y_o \ ( 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4}+  \frac{1}{8} + ... +\frac{1}{2n} )

The sum of the serie has a result of

        sum  = 127/64 = 1,984

Let's calculate

     distance total  = 30 1,984

     Distance total = 59.52 cm

In conclusion, using the sum of the series we can find the result for the total distance that the ball bounces is:

            total distance = 59.52 in

R'=2 Ohm R"=1,5 Ohm R"'=2 Ohm​
Andrew [12]

Answer:

2.5 ohm

Explanation:

R' and R''' are parallel

So,

1/R1= 1/R' + 1/R'''

1/R1 = 1/2 + 1/2

1/R1 = 1

so,

R1= 1 ohm

Now R1 and R'' are in series

so,

R= R1 + R''

R= 1 + 1.5

R= 2.5 ohm

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 48 and its mass number is 167?
lys-0071 [83]
If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom.  Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.

If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are

             (167 - 48)  =  119 neutrons

in each nucleus.

A car accelerates at a rate of 13m/s^2[S]. If the car's initial velocity is 120km/h[N]. What will its final velocity be in m/s,
Delvig [45]

Answer:

the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the car, a = 13 m/s²

initial velocity of the car, u = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s

duration of the car motion, t = 2 s

The final velocity of the car in the same direction is calculated as follows;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the car

v = 33.33 + (13 x 2)

v = 59.33 m/s [N]

Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]
