A ballplayer catches a ball 3.4s after throwing it vertically upward. with what speed did he throw it, and what height did it re

Daniel [21]

From the equation of motion, we know,

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

Where s= displacement

u= initial velocity

a= gravitational force

t= time

Displacement is 0 since the ball comes back to the same point from where it was thrown.

A = $-9.8m/s^{2}$ since the ball is thrown upwards.

Plug the known values into the equation.

=> $0=u\left ( 3.4 \right )+\frac{1}{2}\left ( -9.81 \right )(3.4^{2})$

Solving for u gives :

u= 16.67 m/ sec ....... equation (1)

At maximum height, final velocity i.e v is 0

Time take to reach the top = $\frac{3.4}{2} = 1.7 sec$

$v^{2}=u^{2}+2as$

=> $0=(16.67)^{2}+2(-9.81)(s)$

Solving for s we get

s= 14.16 m

8. In how many ways can a committee of four be selected from eight men and seven women if Miss Jones refuses to serve on the sam

____ [38]

If the exclusion of Miss Jones and Mr Smith serving together was not present, the are 15C4 = 1365 ways of selecting the committee.
Miss Jones can serve on the committee in the following ways:
a) with 3 men
b) with 2 men and another woman
c) with 1 man and 2 other women
d) with 3 other women.
Arrangement d) obviously presents no restrictions.
Arrangement a) has 7C3 ways excluding Mr Smith, and 8C3 ways if Mr Smith was included.
Arrangement b) has 7C2 * 6 ways excluding Mr Smith, and 8C2 * 6 ways if Mr Smith was included.
Arrangement c) has 7 * 6C2 ways excluding Mr Smith, and 8 * 6C2 ways if Mr smith was included.
The reductions in ways caused by the restriction are as follows:
a) 8C3 - 7C3 = 21 ways
b) 6(8C2 - 7C2) = 42 ways
c) 6C2 = 15 ways
The total reduction in the number of ways is: 21 + 42 + 15 = 78.
Therefore the total number of ways of selecting the committee, while observing the restriction, is 1365 - 78 = 1287 ways.

Kim's business earns $10,000 per month. Kim's non-employee expenses are $3,000 per month. If Kim wants $2,000 in profit per mont

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Kim's business earns $10,000 per month.

Kim's non-employee expenses are $3,000 per month.

If Kim wants $2,000 in profit per month, then the maximum amount Kim can spend for employee:

10000 - 3000 - 2000 =5000

If each employee costs $1,000 per month, Kim can recruit 5000/1000 = 5 as the maximum number of employees.

Hope this helps
