Suppose the null hypothesis, H0, is: a weightlifting bar can withstand weights of 800 pounds and less. What is the Type I error

in this scenario?

Type I error α is the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is actually true.

In the case of this problem, the type I error would be rejecting the null hypothesis, therefore, thinking that the weightlifting bar cannot withstand weights of 800 pounds and less, when it actually can.

As the question is about changing in frequency of a wave for an observer who is moving relative to the wave source, the concept that should come to our minds is "Doppler's effect."

Now the general formula of the Doppler's effect is:
f = (\frac{g + v_{r}}{g + v_{s}})f_{o} -- (A)

Note: We do not need to worry about the signs, as everything is moving towards each other. If something/somebody were moving away, we would have the negative sign. However, in this problem it is not the issue.

Where,
g = Speed of sound = 340m/s.
v_{r} = Velocity of the receiver/observer relative to the medium = ?.
v_{s} = Velocity of the source with respect to medium = 0 m/s.
f_{o} =  Frequency emitted from source = 400 Hz.
f = Observed frequency = 408Hz.

Plug-in the above values in the equation (A), you would get:

408 = ( \frac{340 + v_{r}}{340 + 0})*400

\frac{408}{400} =  \frac{340 + v_{r}}{340}

Solving above would give you,
v_{r} = 6.8 m/s

The correct answer = 6.8m/s

Consider two waves defined by the wave functions y1(x,t)=0.50msin(2π3.00mx+2π4.00st) and y2(x,t)=0.50msin(2π6.00mx−2π4.00st). Wh
guapka [62]

Answer:

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

Explanation: comparing the wave equation above with the general wave equation

y(x,t) = Asin(2Πft + 2Πx/¶)

Let ¶ be the wavelength

A is the amplitude

f is the frequency

t is the time

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

A hot piece of iron is thrown into the ocean and its temperature eventually stabilizes. Which of the following statements concer
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

E. The ocean gains more entropy than the iron loses.

Explanation:

When there is a spontaneous process , entropy of the system increases . Here hot iron is losing entropy and ocean is gaining entropy . Net effect will be gain of entropy . That means entropy gained by ocean is more than entropy lost by iron .

Hence option E is correct .

Because the soles of your shoes have cleats, you can exert a forward force of 100 N even on slippery ice. A 10-kg picnic cooler
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

you must throw 3 snowballs

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using the concepts of conservation of the moment, let's define the system as formed by the refrigerator and all the snowballs. Let's write the moment

Initial. Before bumping that refrigerator

          p₀ = n m v₀

Where n is the snowball number

Final. When the refrigerator moves

         pf = (n m + M) v

The moment is preserved because the forces during the crash are internal

        n m v₀ = (n m + M) v

        n m (v₀ - v) = M v

        n = M/m    v/(vo-v)

Let's look for the initial velocity of the balls, suppose the person throws them with the maximum force if it slides in the snow (F = 100N), let's use the second law and Newton

          F = m a

          a = F / m

The distance the ball travels from zero speed to maximum speed is the extension of the arm (x = 1 m), let's look kinematically for the speed of the balls when leaving the arm

          v₁² = v₀² + 2 a x

          v₁² = 0+ 2 (100/1) 1

          v₁ = 14.14 m / s

This is the initial speed for the crash

         v₀ = v = 14.14 m / s

  Let's calculate

           n = M/m   v/ (v₀-v)

           n = 10/1   3 / (14.14 -3)

          n = 2.7 balls

you must throw 3 snowballs

You lower the temperature of a sample of liquid carbon disulfide from 90.3 ∘ C until its volume contracts by 0.507 % of its init
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

T_{f} = 85.89 ° C

Explanation:

The linear thermal expansion process is given by

      ΔL = L α ΔT

For the three-dimensional case, the expression takes the form

     ΔV = V β ΔT

Let's apply this equation to our case

     ΔV / V = ​​-0.507% = -0.507 10-2

     ΔT = (ΔV / V)  1 /β

     ΔT = -0.507 10⁻²  1 / 1.15 10⁻³

     ΔT = -4.409

     T_{f} –T₀ = 4,409

     T_{f} = T₀ - 4,409

     T_{f} = 90.3-4409

     T_{f} = 85.89 ° C
