- The kinetic energy E of an object varies jointly with the object’s mass m and the square of the object’s velocity v . An object with a mass of 50 kilograms traveling at 16 meters per second has a kinetic energy of 6400 joules. What is the kinetic energy of an object with a mass of 70 kilograms traveling at 20 meters per second?arrow_forwardFind the unknown value. 27. y varies jointly with x and the cube root of 2. If when x=2 and z=27,y=12, find y if x=5 and z=8.arrow_forwardThe resistance of a copper wire carrying an electrical current is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. A copper wire with a diameter of 0.0126inch has a resistance of 64.9ohms per thousand feet. What length of 0.0201-inch-diameter copper wire will produce a resistance of 33.5ohms?arrow_forward
- Assume that an object tossed vertically upward reaches a height of h feet after t seconds, where h=100t16t2. What is that maximum height?arrow_forwardFind the intensity of light at a depth of 12 meter if I0=14 and k=0.7. Round to two decimals.arrow_forwardIf y varies inversely with x and y=11 when x=3 find the equation that relates x and y.arrow_forward
- A machinist must produce a bearing that is within 0.01 inches of the correct diameter of 5.0 inches, Using x as the diameter of the bearing, write this statement using absolute value notation.arrow_forwardBen starts walking along a path at 4 mi/h. One and a half hours after Ben leaves, his sister Amanda begins jogging along the same path at 6 mi/h. How long will it be before Amanda catches up to Ben?arrow_forwardThe function f(x)=−6sin(73x+16)−5 models the average rate of change in temperature of a substance monitored in an experiment. In the function, x represents the number of minutes since the commencement of the experiment and the temperature of the substance is measured in degrees Fahrenheit. Over what range of temperatures does the average rate of change in temperature fall? Enter a value in each box to correctly complete the statement. The range in the average rate of change in temperature of the substance is from a low temperature of °F to a high of °F.arrow_forward
- The windchill index announced during the winter by the weather bureau measures how cold it "feels" for a given temperature t (in degrees Fahrenheit) and wind speed w (in miles per hour). It is calculated by the formula C(t, w) = 35.74 + 0.6215t - 35.75w 0.16 + 0.4275tw0.16 + '.+ If the temperature is 31 degrees and the wind speed is 10 miles per hour, estimate the change in the windchill temperature if the wind speed increases by 4 miles per hour and the temperature drops by 5 degrees. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)arrow_forwardA rock is thrown straight up in the air from an initial height ho, in metres, with initial velocity vg, in metres per second. The height in metres above the ground after t seconds is given by h(t) = - 4.9t + vot + hg. Find an expression for the time it takes the rock to reach its maximum height.arrow_forward
