Question 1 of 10

Es 18 de junio de 1815, las tropas napoleónicas se encuentran justo adelante, tu eres el ingeniero en balística y el general Wel

Airida [17]

Answer:

89.1° or -1.4°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Location:

You are on the Mont-Saint-Jean escarpment, near the Belgian town of Waterloo.

The French troops are about 50 m below you and 1.2 km distant.

2. Finding the firing angle

Data:

R = 1200 m

u = 600 m/s

h = -50 m (the height of the target)

a = 9.8 m/s²

We have two conditions.

Horizontal distance

(1) 1200 = 600t cosθ

Vertical distance

(2) -50 = 600t sinθ - 4.9t²

Divide each side of (1) by 600cosθ.

$(3) \, t =\dfrac{2}{\cos \theta}$

Substitute (3) into (2)

$-50 = 600t \sin \theta - 4.9t^{2} = 600 \left( \dfrac{2}{\cos \theta} \right ) \sin \theta - 4.9 \left( \dfrac{2}{\cos \theta} \right )^{2}\\\\(4) \, -50 = 1200 \tan \theta - \dfrac{19.6}{\cos^{2} \theta}$

Recall that

(5) sec²θ = 1/cos²θ = tan²θ + 1

Substitute (5) into (4)

$-50 = 1200 \tan \theta - 19.6 \left(\tan^{2} \theta}+ 1\right )$

Set up a quadratic equation

$\begin{array}{rcl}-50 & = & 1200 \tan \theta - 19.6\tan^{2} \theta -19.6 \\0 & = & 1200 \tan \theta - 19.6\tan^{2} \theta + 30.4\\0 & =&19.6\tan^{2} \theta - 1200 \tan \theta - 30.4\\0 & =&\tan^{2} \theta - 61.224 \tan \theta - 1.551\\\end{array}$

Solve for θ

Use the quadratic formula.

tanθ = 61.249 or -0.025

θ = arctan(61.249) = 89.1° or

θ = arctan(-0.025) = -1.4°

A coin is tossed 4 times. Let E1 be the event "the first toss shows heads" and E2 the event "the second toss shows heads" and so

Elden [556K]

Answer:

The events are independent.

The probability of showing heads on both toss is equal to 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample space for this experiment consists of 2⁴= 16 sample points, as each toss can result in two outcomes we assume that the events are equally likely.

Two events are independent in the sample space if the probability of one event occurs, is not affected by whether the other event has or has not occurred.

In general the k events are defined to be mutually independent if and only if the probability of the intersection of any 2,3,--------, k equals the product of their respective probabilities.

P (A∩B) = P(A). P(B)

P (A∩B) = 1/2. 1/2= 1/4

Head Tail

P(E1)= 1/2 ---------- Coin 1 H,H T,H

1/4 1/4

P(E2)= 1/2 --------------- Coin 2 H, H H,T

1/4 1/4

So the events are independent.

The probability of showing heads on both toss is equal to 1/2

The sample space for this experiment consists of 2⁴= 16 sample points, out of which eight will have heads on both toss.

Or in other words ( 1/4* 1/4) = 2/4 = 1/2

the united states has 12,383 miles of coastline.if 0.8% of the coastline is located in georgia,about how many miles of coastline

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

825.5 miles of coastline

Step-by-step explanation:

The United States has 12383 miles of coastline.

0.8% of the coastline is in Georgia

Total number of coastline in Georgia will be

0.8% /100% x 12383

0.0667 x 12383

825.5

So there are 825.5 miles of coastline Georgia
