A triangular lamina has vertices (0, 0), (0, 1) and (c, 0) for some positive constant c. Assuming constant mass density, show that the y-coordinate of the center of mass of the lamina is independent of the constant c.

Answers

Answer 1

The equation of the line through (0, 1) and (c, 0) is

y - 0 = (0 - 1)/(c - 0) (x - c)   ==>   y = 1 - x/c

Let L denote the given lamina,

L = {(x, y) : 0 ≤ x ≤ c and 0 ≤ y ≤ 1 - x/c}

Then the center of mass of L is the point [tex](\bar x,\bar y)[/tex] with coordinates given by

[tex]\bar x = \dfrac{M_x}m \text{ and } \bar y = \dfrac{M_y}m[/tex]

where [tex]M_x[/tex] is the first moment of L about the x-axis, [tex]M_y[/tex] is the first moment about the y-axis, and m is the mass of L. We only care about the y-coordinate, of course.

Let ρ be the mass density of L. Then L has a mass of

[tex]\displaystyle m = \iint_L \rho \,\mathrm dA = \rho\int_0^c\int_0^{1-\frac xc}\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = \frac{\rho c}2[/tex]

Now we compute the first moment about the y-axis:

[tex]\displaystyle M_y = \iint_L x\rho\,\mathrm dA = \rho \int_0^c\int_0^{1-\frac xc}x\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = \frac{\rho c^2}6[/tex]

Then

[tex]\bar y = \dfrac{M_y}m = \dfrac{\dfrac{\rho c^2}6}{\dfrac{\rho c}2} = \dfrac c3[/tex]

but this clearly isn't independent of c ...

Maybe the x-coordinate was intended? Because we would have had

[tex]\displaystyle M_x = \iint_L y\rho\,\mathrm dA = \rho \int_0^c\int_0^{1-\frac xc}y\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = \frac{\rho c}6[/tex]

and we get

[tex]\bar x = \dfrac{M_x}m = \dfrac{\dfrac{\rho c}6}{\dfrac{\rho c}2} = \dfrac13[/tex]

Answer 2

The center of mass for a uniform triangular shape is on its centroid. The y-coordinate of the center of mass of the lamina is 1/3 (independent of c).

What is the center of mass for a triangular shape?

If the surface is plane triangle approximately and mass is uniformally distributed, then its center of mass will lie on the centroid of that triangle.

What is centroid of a triangle and its coordinates?

The point of intersection of a triangle's medians is its centroid (the lines joining each vertex with the midpoint of the opposite side).

If the triangle has its vertices as  [tex](x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2) , \: (x_3, y_3)[/tex], then the coordinates of the centroid of that triangle is given by:

[tex](x,y) = \left( \dfrac{x_1 + x_2 + x_3}{3} + \dfrac{y_1 + y_2 + y_3}{3} \right)[/tex]

For this case, the  triangular lamina has vertices (0, 0), (0, 1) and (c, 0)

Assuming its mass is spread regularly, the coordinates of its center of mass would be:

[tex](x,y) = \left( \dfrac{x_1 + x_2 + x_3}{3} + \dfrac{y_1 + y_2 + y_3}{3} \right)\\\\(x,y) = \left( \dfrac{0+0+c}{3} + \dfrac{0+1+0}{3} \right) = (c/3, 1/3)[/tex]

Thus, the y-coordinate of the center of mass of the lamina is 1/3 (independent of c).

A ball is dropped from 248 feet above
the ground level and after the second
bounce it rises to the height of 62 feet.
If the height to which the ball rises
after each bounce is always the same
fraction of the height reached on its
previous bounce, what is this
fraction?

Answers

Let us say

The Height from which the ball was first dropped as H0 = 248 feet

The Height reached by the ball after second bounce is H1

The Height reached by the ball after second bounce is H2 = 62 feet

Given , Height the ball reaches after bounce is a fraction of the height the ball reached in the previous bounce

The Height reached by the ball after second bounce = H2 = X of H1

==> 62 = X * H1 ...................Equation 1

The Height reached by the ball after first bounce = H1 = X of H0

==> H1 = X * 248 ...................Equation 2

Substituting value of H1 from Equation 2 to Equation 1

62 = X * H1 = X * X * 248

X^2 = 62/248 = 31/124 = 1/4

X = 1/2

Consider the initial value problem
y' + 6y = {0 if 0 < or equal to t < or equal to 2
12 if 2 < or equal to t < or equal to 6
0 if 6 < or equal to t < or equal to infinity}
a. Take the Laplace transform of both sides of the given differential equation to create the corresponding algebraic equation. Denote the Laplace transform of y(t) by Y(s). Do not move any terms from one side of the equation to the other (until you get to part (b) below).
b. Solve your equation for Y(s).
c. Take the inverse Laplace transform of both sides of the previous equation to solve for y(t).

Answers

y' + 6y = f(t)

where

[tex]f(t)=\begin{cases}0&\text{if }0\le t\le2\\12&\text{if }2<t\le6\\0&\text{if }6<t<\infty\end{cases}[/tex]

You can write f(t) in terms of the unit step (i.e. Heaviside theta) function u(t), which is defined as

[tex]u(t)=\begin{cases}0&\text{if }t<0\\1&\text{if }t\ge0\end{cases}[/tex]

Then the DE is written as

y' + 6y = 12 u (t - 2) - 12 u (t - 6)

(a) Take the Laplace transform of both sides:

LT[y' + 6y] = LT[12 u (t - 2) - 12 u (t - 6)]

s Y - y (0) + 6Y = 12 (exp(-2s) - exp(-6s))/s

(b) Solve for Y :

(s + 6) Y = 12 (exp(-2s) - exp(-6s))/s + y (0)

Y = 12 (exp(-2s) - exp(-6s))/(s (s + 6)) + y (0)/(s + 6)

(c) Take the inverse transform:

LT⁻¹ [Y] = LT⁻¹[12 (exp(-2s) - exp(-6s))/(s (s + 6)) + y (0)/(s + 6)]

y = 12 LT⁻¹ [(exp(-2s) - exp(-6s))/(s (s + 6))] + y (0) LT⁻¹ [1/(s + 6)]

y = 12 u (t - 2) LT⁻¹ [1/(s (s + 6))] - 12 u (t - 6) LT⁻¹ [1/(s (s + 6))] + y (0) exp(-6t )

For the remaining inverse transform, break up into partial fractions:

1/(s (s + 6)) = a/s + b/(s + 6)

1 = a (s + 6) + bs

1 = (a + b) s + 6a

==>   6a = 1, a + b = 0   ==>   a = 1/6, b = -1/6

y = 2 u (t - 2) LT⁻¹ [1/s - 1/(s + 6)] - 2 u (t - 6) LT⁻¹ [1/s - 1/(s + 6)] + y (0) exp(-6t )

y = 2 u (t - 2) (1 - exp(-6t )) - 2 u (t - 6) (1 - exp(-6t )) + y (0) exp(-6t )

There is a rack of 15 billiard balls. Balls numbered 1 through 8 are solid-colored. Balsa numbered 9 through 15 contain stripes. If one ball is selected at random, determine the odds for it being striped.

Answers

If one ball is selected at random, the odds for it being striped are 7 out of 15, or 7/15.

What do we know?

We know that there are 15 billiard balls.

We also know that balls numbered 1 through 8 are solid-colored, so we have 8 solid-colored balls.

And the other 7 balls are striped.

Now we want to find the probability for a randomly selected ball to be a striped ball.

Because all the balls have the same probability of being randomly selected, the probability of randomly selecting a striped ball is equal to the quotient between the number of striped balls (7) and the total number of balls (15).

Then we have:

P = 7/15 = 0.467

That quotient is also what is called the "odds"

So if one ball is selected at random, the odds for it being striped are 7 out of 15, or 7/15.

Answers

168).  C

169).  C

170).  C

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first angle, it is a right angle, so it measures 90 degrees.

x and 50 are complementary angles, meaning they add up to 90 degrees.

So, subtract 50 from 90 to get 40, which is equal to x.

45 and x are supplementary angles, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.

Subtract 45 from 180 to get 35 degrees, which is the measure of angle x.

All angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

So, 70 + 56 = 126, 180 - 126 = 54.

Since the unknown angle is x - 5, 54 + 5 = 59, which the the measure of angle x - 5.

The positive value of x that makes this so is x = 120.

120 units will have a cost of 13,865 to manufacture.

If you like to solve this algebraically, you can probably do it most easily by completing the square.

  x^2 -5x = -65 +13865

  x^2 -5x +6.25 = 13806.25 . . . . . add the square of (-5/2)

  (x -2.5)² = 13806.25

  x -2.5 = √13806.25 = 117.5 . . . . only the positive square root is interesting

  x = 117.5 +2.5 = 120

Answer:

Number of 7-digit numbers that can be made from the digit is 576

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

digits ⇒ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Number of odd numbers in the given digits = 4

Number of even numbers in the given digits = 3

now, we take the odd digits as a single unit.

so, number of ways the odd digits can be arranged with the unit will be 4!.

Now, lets consider the unit of 4 odd digits with 3 even digits.

there are 4 units.

so the number of possible arrangements of these 4 units = 4!

hence, Number of 7-digit numbers that can be made from the digits will be;

⇒ Number of possible arrangements of 4 units × Number of ways in which the odd digits can be arranged within the unit.

⇒ 4! × 4!

576

Therefore, Number of 7-digit numbers that can be made from the digit is 576

The diameter of a sphere is 4 centimeters. Which represents the volume of the sphere?

C) 64/3π cm^3

D) 16π cm^3

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter is 4 cm, then the radius is 2 cm.

Use the sphere volume formula:

V = 4/3[tex]\pi[/tex]r³

Plug in the radius and solve:

V = 4/3[tex]\pi[/tex](2)³

V = 4/3[tex]\pi[/tex](8)
