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.

Una furgoneta circula por una carretera a 55km/h. Diez km atrás , un coche circula en el mismo sentido a 85km/h ¿ En cuanto tiem
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

t = 0.33h = 1200s

x = 18.33 km

Explanation:

If the origin of coordinates is at the second car, you can write the following equations for both cars:

car 1:

x=x_o+v_1t    (1)

xo = 10 km

v1 = 55km/h

car 2:

x'=v_2t    (2)

v2 = 85km/h

For a specific value of time t the positions of both cars are equal, that is, x=x'. You equal equations (1) and (2) and solve for t:

x=x'\\\\x_o+v_1t=v_2t\\\\(v_2-v_1)t=x_o\\\\t=\frac{x_o}{v_2-v_1}

t=\frac{10km}{85km/h-55km/h}=0.33h*\frac{3600s}{1h}=1200s

The position in which both cars coincides is:

x=(55km/h)(0.33h)=18.33km

A 5.0-g marble is released from rest in the deep end of a swimming pool. An underwater video reveals that its terminal speed in
Temka [501]

Answer:

a) a = -g = 9.8 m/s² , b) a = 0 m/s² and c)   t1 = 0.0213 s

Explanation:

a) At the moment the marble is released its velocity is zero, so it has no resistance force, the only force acting is its weight, so the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

       a = -g = 9.8 m / s²

b) When the marble goes its terminal velocity all forces have been equalized, therefore, the sum of them is zero and consequently if acceleration is also zero

      a = 0 m / s²

c) We have to assume a specific type of resistive force, for liquid in general the resistive force is proportional to the speed of the body.

The expression of this situation is

         v = mg / b (1 -e^{-bt/m} )

For a very long time the exponential is zero, so the terminal velocity is

        v_{T} = mg / b

        b = mg /  v_{T}

        b = 5 10-3 9.8 / 0.3

        b = 0.163

We already have all the data to calculate the time for v = ½ v_{T}

        ½ v_{T} = v_{T} (1 -e^{-bt/m})

        ½ = 1- e (- 0.163 t1 / 5 10-3)

        e (-32.6 t1) = 1-0.5              (by  ln())

       -32.6 t1 = ln 0.5

       t1 = -1 / 32.6 (-0.693)

       t1 = 0.0213 s

A factory robot drops a 10 kg computer onto a conveyor belt running at 3.1 m/s. The materials are such that
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Option (c) will be correct answer that is it will go 1.6 m

Explanation:

We have given that conveyor has the velocity u = 3.1 m/sec

Mass of the robot = 10 kg

static friction coefficient  = 0.5 and kinetic friction coefficient = 0.3

Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/sec^2

Acceleration a = kinetic friction coefficient ×g = 0.3×9.8 = 2.94m/sec^2

Now according to third equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2as

Finally velocity of the conveyor will be zero

So 0^2=3.1^2-2\times 2.94\times s

s = 1.6 m

So option (c) is correct option

Lydia is an example of an optimist. Optimists always look at the positive side of a particular situation. They believe in a positive result. Optimist always see "the bright side" as opposed to the pessimist. The word optimism comes from latin word "optimum" which means "the best".

Grace [21]

Answer:

Only the 4 th statement is true that is bed 1 and 3 are older than 4.

Explanation:

The 5 beds are numbered from 1 to 5 , 1 being the lowest and 5 being the topmost bed.

We are given 4 statements and we have to find out which all are true.

(<u>a)Bed 4 is older than bed 2 </u>

This is wrong because the lower beds are older than beds that are higher.

<u>(b)Bed 3 is older than beds 2 and 4</u>

This is also wrong because the 2 is older than 3

(<u>c)Bed 5 is the oldest </u>

This is wrong because bed 1 is the oldest

(<u>d)Beds 1 and 3 are older than 4</u>

This is true as lower beds are older
