The random variable in this experiment is a Continuous random variable.

Option D

<u>Explanation</u>:

The continuous random variable is random variable where the data can take infinite variables. For example random variable is taken for measuring "speed of automobiles" on the highways. The radar instrument depicts time taken by automobile in particular what speed. They are the generalization of discrete random variables not the real numbers as a random data is created. It gives infinite sets of all possible outcomes. It is obvious that outcomes of the instrument depend on some "physical variables" those are not predictable as depends on the situation.

A 3kW oven supplied with 9mJ of energy.How many minutes can it run for?
andreev551 [17]

<span>Hello!
 
We have the following data:
</span>
Time (T) = ? (in minutes)
Power (P) = 3 kW → 3000 W
Energy (E) = 9 MJ → 9000000 J or (W/s)

Formula of the consumption of electric energy:

P =  \frac{E}{T}

Solving:

P = \frac{E}{T}

P = \frac{E}{T} \to T =  \frac{E}{P}

T =  \frac{9000\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0\:\diagup\!\!\!\!W/s}{3\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0\:\diagup\!\!\!\!W}

\boxed{T = 3000\:seconds}

How many minutes can it run for? (<span>Let's convert in minutes)
</span>
1 minute --------- 60 seconds
y minute --------- 3000 seconds

\frac{1}{y} = \frac{60}{3000}

<span>Product of extremes equals product of means
</span>
60*y = 1*3000

60y = 3000

y =  \frac{3000}{60}

\boxed{\boxed{y = 50\:minutes}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark


I hope this helps! =)

A wire of 1mm diameter and 1m long fixed at one end is stretched by 0.01mm when a lend of 10 kg is attached to its free end.calc
Otrada [13]

Answer:

E = 1.25×10¹³ N/m²

Explanation:

Young's modulus is defined as:

E = stress / strain

E = (F / A) / (dL / L)

E = (F L) / (A dL)

Given:

F = 10 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 98 N

L = 1 m

dL = 10⁻⁵ m

A = π/4 (0.001 m)² = 7.85×10⁻⁷ m²

Solve:

E = (98 N × 1 m) / (7.85×10⁻⁷ m² × 10⁻⁵ m)

E = 1.25×10¹³ N/m²

Round as needed.

The drawing shows an adiabatically isolated cylinder that is divided initially into two identical parts by an adiabatic partitio
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

temperature on left side is 1.48 times the temperature on right

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

\gamma = 5/3

T1 = 525 K

T2 = 275 K

We know that

P_1 = \frac{nRT_1}{v}

P_2 = \frac{nrT_2}{v}

n and v remain same at both side. so we have

\frac{P_1}{P_2} = \frac{T_1}{T_2} = \frac{525}{275} = \frac{21}{11}

P_1 = \frac{21}{11} P_2 ..............1

let final pressure is P and temp  T_1 {f} and T_2 {f}

P_1^{1-\gamma} T_1^{\gamma} = P^{1 - \gamma}T_1 {f}^{\gamma}

P_1^{-2/3} T_1^{5/3} = P^{-2/3} T_1 {f}^{5/3} ..................2

similarly

P_2^{-2/3} T_2^{5/3} = P^{-2/3} T_2 {f}^{5/3} .............3

divide 2 equation by 3rd equation

\frac{21}{11}^{-2/3} \frac{21}{11}^{5/3} = [\frac{T_1 {f}}{T_2 {f}}]^{5/3}

T_1 {f} = 1.48 T_2 {f}

thus, temperature on left side is 1.48 times the temperature on right

A baggage handler throws a 15 kg suitcase along the floor of an airplane luggage compartment with a speed of 1.2 m/s. The suitca
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

0.0367

Explanation:

The loss in kinetic energy results into work done by friction.

Since kinetic energy is given by

KE=0.5mv^{2}

Work done by friction is given as

W= umgd

Where m is the mass of suitacase, v is velocity of the suitcase, g is acceleration due to gravity, d is perpendicular distance where force is applied and u is coefficient of kinetic friction.

Making u the subject of the formula then we deduce that

u=\frac {v^{2}}{2gd}

Substituting v with 1.2 m/s, d with 2m and taking g as 9.81 m/s2 then

u=\frac {1.2^{2}}{2*9.81*2}=0.0366972477064\approx 0.0367

Therefore, the coefficient of kinetic friction is approximately 0.0367
