Chapter 20, Problem 44P
Bessel functions often arise in advanced engineering analyses such as the study of electric fields. These functions are usually not amenable to straight forward evaluation and, therefore, are often compiled in standard mathematical tables. For example,
| x | 1.8 | 2 | 2.2 | 2.4 | 2.6 |
|
|
0.5815 | 0.5767 | 0.556 | 0.5202 | 0.4708 |

Below are data on the population of a species of moths that inhabit an island and breed annually (then
die). Suppose the population model has the form
Pn= (1 + r) Pn-1 + f₂
where n is measured in years after 1995. That is, P = population in 1995, P₁ =population in 1996, etc.
(a) You are to determine the updating function for this population using the data in the table above. Which
of the following equations are valid for this model and can be used to find the parameters?

This is quantified by the wind chill index W, which is supposed to predict how cold we will feel for a given air temperature T, in degrees Fahrenheit, and wind speed V, in miles/hour. The National Weather Service uses the following formula: W=35.74+0.6215T−35.75V^0.16+0.4275TV^0.16, for T≤50 and V≥3. What is the wind chill index when the air temperature is 25 degrees and the wind speed is 18 miles/hour?Answer: Calculate the partial derivatives WT and WV when T=25 and V=18.WT= WV= Use your answer above to do the following question: When the air temperature is 25 degrees, estimate the change in the wind chill index if the wind speed increases by 2 miles/hour from 18 miles/hour.Answer:arrow_forwardThe following data represent the heights of buildings and the sustained wind speeds recorded at the tops of the buildings in a major city.
