A truck weighing 150kN and travelling at 2m/sec impacts with a buffer

FrozenT [24]

The maximum compression of the spring is 0.276 m

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we calculate the spring constant of the spring, by using Hooke's law:

$F=kx$

where

F = 10 kN = 10,000 N is the force applied

x = 1.25 cm = 0.0125 m is the corresponding compression of the spring

k is the spring constant

Solving for k,

$k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{10,000}{0.0125}=8\cdot 10^5 N/m$

When the truck impacts with the spring, all the kinetic energy of the truck is converted into elastic potential energy of the spring, so we can write

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$ (1)

where

m is the mass of the truck

v = 2 m/s is the initial speed of the truck

$k=8\cdot 10^5 N/m$ is the spring constant

x is the compression of the spring

The mass of the truck can be found from its weight:

$m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{150,000 N}{9.81 N/kg}=15,290 kg$

So now we can re-arrange eq.(1) to find the compression, x:

$x=\sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{(15,290)(2)^2}{8\cdot 10^5}}=0.276 m$

For the cost function c equals 0.1 q squared plus 2.1 q plus 8, how fast does c change with respect to q when q equals 11? Det

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Rate of change of c with respect to q is 4.3

Percentage rate of change c with respect to q is 9.95%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost function is given as, $c=0.1\:q^{2}+2.1\:q+8$

Given that c changes with respect to q that is, $\dfrac{dc}{dq}$ . So differentiating given function,

$\dfrac{dc}{dq}=\dfrac{d}{dq}\left (0.1\:q^{2}+2.1\:q+8 \right)$

Applying sum rule of derivative,

$\dfrac{dc}{dq}=\dfrac{d}{dq}\left(0.1\:q^{2}\right)+\dfrac{d}{dq}\left(2.1\:q\right)+\dfrac{d}{dq}\left(8\right)$

Applying power rule and constant rule of derivative,

$\dfrac{dc}{dt}=0.1\left(2\:q^{2-1}\right)+2.1\left(1\right)+0$

$\dfrac{dc}{dt}=0.1\left(2\:q\right)+2.1$

$\dfrac{dc}{dt}=0.2\left(q\right)+2.1$

Substituting the value of $q=11$ ,

$\dfrac{dc}{dt}=0.2\left(11\right)+21.$

$\dfrac{dc}{dt}=2.2+2.1$

$\dfrac{dc}{dt}=4.3$

Rate of change of c with respect to q is 4.3

Formula for percentage rate of change is given as,

$Percentage\:rate\:of\:change=\dfrac{Q'\left(x\right)}{Q\left(x\right)}\times 100$

Rewriting in terms of cost C,

$Percentage\:rate\:of\:change=\dfrac{C'\left(q\right)}{C\left(q\right)}\times 100$

Calculating value of $C\left(q \right)$

$C\left(q\right)=0.1\:q^{2}+2.1\:q+8$

Substituting the value of $q=11$ ,

$C\left(q\right)=0.1\left(11\right)^{2}+2.1\left(11\right)+8$

$C\left(q\right)=0.1\left(121\right)+23.1+8$

$C\left(q\right)=12.1+23.1+8$

$C\left(q\right)=43.2$

Now using the formula for percentage,

$Percentage\:rate\:of\:change=\dfrac{4.3}{43.2}\times 100$

$Percentage\:rate\:of\:change=0.0995\times 100$

$Percentage\:rate\:of\:change=9.95%$

Percentage rate of change of c with respect to q is 9.95%

Determine whether the value is a discrete random variable, continuous random variable, or not a random variable. a. The number

Bumek [7]

Answer:

a. Discrete

b. Discrete

c. Not a random variable

d. Continuous

e. Discrete

f. Continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

The discrete random variable is countable while continuous random variable is measurable.

a. The number of fish caught is a discrete random variable because these are countable.

b. The number of text book authors are also countable so it is a discrete random variable.

c. The political party affiliation of adults is not a random variable because the political party affiliation depends on person's interest and it cannot be randomly assigned to person. Also random variable is the numerical outcome of random experiment whereas political affiliation is the categorical variable that results in non numerical responses such as Democrat, Republicans etc.

d. The square footage of a house is measurable and so it is a continuous random variable.

e. The number of free dash throw attempts are countable so it is a discrete random variable

f. The weight of Upper T dash bone steak is measurable and so it is a continuous random variable.
