An agriculturalist working with Australian pine trees wanted to investigate the relationship between the age and the height of t

he Australian pine. A random sample of Australian pine trees was selected, and the age, in years, and the height, in meters, was recorded for each tree in the sample. Based on the recorded data, the agriculturalist created the following regression equation to predict the height, in meters, of the Australian pine based on the age, in years, of the tree. predicted height 0.29+048 (age) Which of the following is the best interpretation of the slope of the regression line?
A. The height increases, on average, by 1 meter each 0.48 year.
B. The height increases, on average, by 0.48 meter each year.
C. The height increases, on average, by 0.29 meter each year.
D. The height increases, on average, by 0.29 meter each 0.48 year.
E. The difference between the actual height and the predicted height is, on average, 0.48 meter for each year.

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Step 1:

The available regression equation is: Predict height= 0.29 + 0.48 (age).

Here, the predict height is dependent variable and the  age is in-dependent variable.

Intercept = 0.29

Slope      = 0.48

The given regression equation indicates the y on x model and the intercept coefficients of the regression equation is 0.29 and the slope is 0.48.

Step 2:

The height increases, an average, by 0.48 m per year.

Because co-efficient of slope variable indicate the positive sign and we increase 1 year in age then automatically height increased is 0.48 m.

Block A, mass 250 g , sits on top of block B, mass 2.0 kg . The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between blocks A and
masha68 [24]

Answer:

  F = 69.3 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Newton's second law, remembering that the static friction force increases up to a maximum value given by

               fr = μ N

We define a reference system parallel to the floor

block B  ( lower)

Y axis  

            N - W₁-W₂ = 0

            N = W₂ + W₂

            N = (M + m) g

X axis

              F -fr = M a

for block A (upper)

X axis

              fr = m a                 (2)

so that the blocks do not slide, the acceleration in both must be the same.

Let's solve the system by adding the two equations

             F = (M + m) a          (3)

             a =\frac{F}{ M+m}

the friction force has the formula

            fr = μ N

             fr = μ (M + m) g

let's calculate

            fr = 0.34 (2.0 + 0.250) 9.8

            fr = 7.7 N

we substitute in equation 2

             fr = m a

             a = fr / m

             a = 7.7 / 0.250

             a = 30.8 m / s²

we substitute in equation 3

             F = (2.0 + 0.250) 30.8

             F = 69.3 N

Suppose an isolated box of volume 2V is divided into two equal compartments. An ideal gas occupies half of the container and the
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

A. the internal energy stays the same

Explanation:

From the first law of thermodynamics, "energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

Based on this first law of thermodynamic, the new internal energy of the gas is the same as the internal energy of the original system.

Therefore, when the partition separating the two halves of the box is removed and the system reaches equilibrium again, the internal energy stays the same.

a 4357 kg roller coaster car starts from rest at the top of a 36.5 m high track. determine the speed of the car at the top of a
andrey2020 [161]
The correct answer is 17.24 m/s. You get the answer by subtracting the two heights of the tracks which are 36.5 and 10.8 m, and the answer is 25.7. Since you already know the height at which the kinetic energy will be coming from, you then divide the amount of weight the roller coaster has to the distance it needs to travel in order for you to determine the speed of the car. So that is, 4,357 kg and 25.7 m and the answer is 169 kg/m. Dividing it to the earth's gravity of 9.8 m/s you'll get 17.24 m/s.
