Two charged particles, Q1, and Q2, are a distance r apart with Q2 = 5Q1 Compare the forces they exert on one another when F1 is the force Q2 exerts on Q1and F2 is the force Q1 exerts on Q2.
a) F2 = 5F1.
b) F2 =-5F1.
c) F2 = F1.
d) F2 = -F1.
e) 5F2 = F1.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d) F2 = -F1.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Coulomb's law of forces on electrostatic charges, the force of attraction is proportional to the product of their charges, and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

What this law means is that both particles will experience an equal amount of force on them, due to the presence of the other particle. This force is not just as a result of their individual charges, but as a result of the product of their charges. Also, the force is a vector quantity that must have a direction alongside its magnitude, and the force on the two particles will always act in opposite direction, be it repulsive or attractive.

After how many years, to the nearest whole year, will an investment of $100,000 compounded quarterly at 4% be worth
$213,022?
Provide your answer below:

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  19 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula tells you the future value of principal P invested at annual rate r compounded n times per year for t years is ...

  A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

Solving for t, we get ...

  t = log(A/P)/(n·log(1 +r/n))

Using the given values, we find t to be ...

  t = log(2.13022)/(4·log(1 +0.04/4)) ≈ 19.000

The investment will be worth $213,022 after 19 years.

Two sides of a triangle are equal length. The length of the third side exceeds the length of one of the other sides by 3 centimeters. The perimeter of the triangle is 93 centimeters. Find the length of each of the shorter sides of the triangle

Answers

Answer:

30 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the lenght of the two sides of equal lenghts, so the other is x+3

and the perimeter is x+x +x +3

P=3x+3

P=3(x+1)

93=3(x+1)

31=x+1

x=30

so the shorter sides are of 30 centimeters and the longest is 33

A player at a fair pays Rs. 100 to roll a dice. The player receives Rs. 50 if the number of dots facing up is equal to 5, Rs. 200 if the number is 6, but nothing otherwise. Find the expected value of the reward Y. What is the expected value of the gain? Find out the standard deviation of Y.

Answers

Answer:

The dice has 6 options:

if the outcome is 5, player wins 50

if the outcome is 6, player wins 200

if the outcome is another number, the player does not win anything.

Now, remember that the expected value can be written as:

E = ∑xₙpₙ

where xₙ is the event n, and pₙ is the probability of that event.

for a dice, the probabilty for each number is 1/6

The expected value is:

E = (1/6)*(0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 50 + 200) = 41.66

The expected gain will be E - 100 (because the player pays 100 in order to play)

Then the expected gain is:

G = 41.66 - 100 = -58.33

The standard deviation can be written as:

s = √( ∑(x - x)^2/n)

where x is the mean, in this case the mean is:

(200 + 50 + 4*0)/6 = 41.66  and n = 6.

s = √( (1/6)*(4*(0 - 41.66)^2 + (50 - 41.66)^2 + (200 - 41.66)^2) ) = 73

So we have a lot of standard deviation on Y.

A circle's circumference is approximately 76 cm. Estimate the radius, diameter, and area of the circle by using 3 for pi.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference = 76cm

Circumference = 2(π)(r)

r -> radius

=> 2(π)(r) = 76

=> (π)(r) = 76/2

=> (π)(r) = 38

=> 3r = 38

=> r = 38/3

=> r = 13cm (Approx.)

Diameter = 2r = 2(13) = 26cm

Area = π(r)^2

        = 3(13)^2

        = 3(169)

        = 507 cm^2

Answer

d=25.34cm

a=160.53cm

cf=12.67cm

Step-by-step explanation:

circumference=cf

diameter=d

radius=r

area=a

d=2r

=2×12.67cm

=25.34cm

cf=2πr

76cm=2(3)r

76cm=3r

2

38cm=r

3

r=12.66^cm

r=12.67cm

find the area

a=πr^2

a=12.67×12.67πcm

a=160.53πcm(it is near to this)

Scores on a college entrance examination are normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100. What percent of people who write this exam obtain scores between 350 and 650?

Answers

Answer:

The percentage is [tex]P(350 < X 650 ) = 86.6\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  [tex]\mu = 500[/tex]

     The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 100[/tex]

The  percent of people who write this exam obtain scores between 350 and 650    

    [tex]P(350 < X 650 ) = P(\frac{ 350 - 500}{ 100} <\frac{ X - \mu }{ \sigma } < \frac{650 - 500}{ 100} )[/tex]

Generally  

               [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of \ X )[/tex]

   [tex]P(350 < X 650 ) = P(\frac{ 350 - 500}{ 100} <Z < \frac{650 - 500}{ 100} )[/tex]

   [tex]P(350 < X 650 ) = P(-1.5<Z < 1.5 )[/tex]

   [tex]P(350 < X 650 ) = P(Z < 1.5) - P(Z < -1.5)[/tex]

From the z-table  [tex]P(Z < -1.5 ) = 0.066807[/tex]

   and [tex]P(Z < 1.5 ) = 0.93319[/tex]

=>    [tex]P(350 < X 650 ) = 0.93319 - 0.066807[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(350 < X 650 ) = 0.866[/tex]

Therefore the percentage is  [tex]P(350 < X 650 ) = 86.6\%[/tex]

Y=-×+1 and y=2×+4 how many solutions when graphed

Answers

Answer:

One solution (-1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these two linear equations have different slopes, different y-intercepts, and are indeed linear, these equations will only have one crossing when graphed, and hence one solution.

To find that solution, we can simply set the equations equal to each other.

y = -x + 1

y = 2x + 4

-x + 1 = 2x + 4

-3 = 3x

-1 = x

Now plug that value back into one of the equations:

y = -x + 1

y = -(-1) + 1

y = 2

So now you know the crossing for these two equations occurs at (-1,2).

Rabi Sahu fixed the marked price of his radio to make a profit of 30 %. Allowing 15 % discount on the marked price, the radio was sold. What percent profit did he make?​

Answers

The percent profit that Rabi made will be 10.5%

Let's assume that the price of the house is $100.

Since he fixed the marked price of the good to make a profit of 30%, then the price will be:

= $100 + (30% × $100)

= $100 + $30

= $130

Now, there is a discount of 15%, then the selling price of the good will be:

= $130 - (15% × $130)

= $130 - (0.15 × $130)

= $130 - $19.50

= $110.50

Then, the percentage of profit made will be:

= [($110.50 - $100) / $100] × 100%

= $10.50/$100 × 100%

= 10.5%

In conclusion, the percent profit that he makes is 10.5%.

Since the given box is in the shape of a triangular prism,

Surface area of the prism = 2(surface area of the triangular bases) + Area of the three rectangular lateral sides

Surface area of the triangular base = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{height})[/tex]

                                                           = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(6)(4)[/tex]

                                                           = 12 cm²

Surface area of the rectangular side with the dimensions of (6cm × 9cm),

= Length × width

= 6 × 9

= 54 cm²

Area of the rectangle with the dimensions (9cm × 5cm),

= 9 × 5

= 45 cm²

Area of the rectangle with the dimensions (9cm × 5cm),

= 9 × 5

Answers

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the function is in vertex form. Thus, we can analyze the equation to determine the x and y values of the vertex. We know that the template format of a vertex form equation is as follows:

f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k . The only constants we need are h and k, where 'h' is the x-value of our vertex and 'k' is the y-value of our vertex.

The value of 'k' can be found quite simply by looking at the equation: -9.

The value of 'h' is a little trickier, as we must take into account the 'subtract' sign of the template equation, meaning that the '+7' in the given equation actually means that we are subtracting negative seven. Thus, the value of 'h' is -7.

Thus, the vertex of this graph is (-7,-9).

This means that option D is correct.

Answer:

The vertex is at ( -7, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x+7)^2 -9

This is written in vertex form

y = a( x-h)^2 +k where ( h,k) is the vertex

y = ( x - -7)^2 + -9

The vertex is at ( -7, -9)

If there is $2 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 2) × [70 - 8(2)]

If we continue the pattern, for x times $1 increase, total money earned is

(2 + x)(70 - 8x) = -8x^{2} +54x+140−8x2+54x+140

If we substitute x = 0 in the above equation, we will get

the total money earned = $140.

It means if there is no increase, then the total money earned = 140.

Hence, 140 is the constant term and it represents that there is no increase in price.
