Using it's concept, it is found that the median number of posts made was of 8.5.

<h3>What is the median of a data-set?</h3>

The median of the data-set separates the bottom half from the upper half, that is, it is the 50th percentile.

In this problem, the total number of observations is the sum of the frequencies, hence:

T = 1 + 0 + 3 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 9 = 28

Even number, hence the median is the <u>mean between the 14th and the 15th elements</u>, of the ordered set, hence:

M = (8 + 9)/2 = 8.5.

To remind, the ordered set is: {0, 1, 1, 1, ..., 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10}

The median number of posts made was of 8.5.

Find f(2) if f(x) = (x + 1)2.<br><br><br> 1. 9<br> 2. 6<br> 3. 5

kolezko [41]

Answer: f(2) = 6

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we are given the function

f (x) = (x + 1) 2 and we are asked to find f(2). In other words, if we put an "x" into our function, we get a (x + 1) 2 out.

f we put a 2 into the function, we get f(2) = (2 + 1) 2 out. Now all we have to do is simplify on the right side.

2 + 1 gives us 3 and if we multiply 3 by 2, we get a product of 6.

Therefore, f(2) is 6.

In a circus performance, a monkey is strapped to a sled and both are given an initial speed of 3.0 m/s up a 22.0° inclined track

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Approximately $0.31\; \rm m$ , assuming that $g = 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial kinetic energy of the sled and its passenger:

$\begin{aligned}\text{KE} &= \frac{1}{2}\, m \cdot v^{2} \\ &= \frac{1}{2} \times 14\; \rm kg \times (3.0\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1})^{2} \\ &= 63\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

Weight of the slide:

$\begin{aligned}W &= m \cdot g \\ &= 14\; \rm kg \times 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1} \\ &\approx 137\; \rm N\end{aligned}$ .

Normal force between the sled and the slope:

$\begin{aligned}F_{\rm N} &= W\cdot \cos(22^{\circ}) \\ &\approx 137\; \rm N \times \cos(22^{\circ}) \\ &\approx 127\; \rm N\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the kinetic friction between the sled and the slope:

$\begin{aligned} f &= \mu_{k} \cdot F_{\rm N} \\ &\approx 0.20\times 127\; \rm N \\ &\approx 25.5\; \rm N\end{aligned}$ .

Assume that the sled and its passenger has reached a height of $h$ meters relative to the base of the slope.

Gain in gravitational potential energy:

$\begin{aligned}\text{GPE} &= m \cdot g \cdot (h\; {\rm m}) \\ &\approx 14\; {\rm kg} \times 9.81\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}} \times h\; {\rm m} \\ & \approx (137\, h)\; {\rm J} \end{aligned}$ .

Distance travelled along the slope:

$\begin{aligned}x &= \frac{h}{\sin(22^{\circ})} \\ &\approx \frac{h\; \rm m}{0.375}\end{aligned}$ .

The energy lost to friction (same as the opposite of the amount of work that friction did on this sled) would be:

$\begin{aligned} & - (-x)\, f \\ = \; & x \cdot f \\ \approx \; & \frac{h\; {\rm m}}{0.375}\times 25.5\; {\rm N} \\ \approx\; & (68.1\, h)\; {\rm J}\end{aligned}$ .

In other words, the sled and its passenger would have lost (approximately) $((137 + 68.1)\, h)\; {\rm J}$ of energy when it is at a height of $h\; {\rm m}$ .

The initial amount of energy that the sled and its passenger possessed was $\text{KE} = 63\; {\rm J}$ . All that much energy would have been converted when the sled is at its maximum height. Therefore, when $h\; {\rm m}$ is the maximum height of the sled, the following equation would hold.
