- Without solving explicitly, classify the critical points of the given first-order autonomous differential equation as either asymptotically stable or unstable. All constants are assumed to be positive. (Enter the critical points for each stability category as a comma-separated list. If there are no critical points in a certain category, enter NONE.) mdv/dt = mg − kv asymptotically stable v= unstable v= nonearrow_forward61 6) One kilogram of ground nutmeg cost $A.

Refer to the D Radiation Protection Dosimetry (Dec. 2010) study TOMBS of radon exposure in Egyptian tombs, Exercise 7.39 (p. 334). The radon levels-measured in becquerels per cubic meter (Bq/m³)-in the inner chambers of a sam- ple of 12 tombs are listed in the table. For the safety of the guards and visitors, the Egypt Tourism Authority (ETA) will temporarily close the tombs if the true mean level of radon exposure in the tombs rises to 6,000 Bq/m³. Consequently, the ETA wants to conduct a test to deter- mine if the true mean level of radon exposure in the tombs is less than 6,000 Bq/m³, using a Type I error probabil- ity of .10. A SAS analysis of the data is shown on p. 399. Specify all the elements of the test: Ho, Ha, test statistic, p-value, a, and your conclusion. 50 390 910 12100 180 580 7800 4000 3400 1300 11900 1100 N Mean Std Dev Std Err Minimum Maximum 12 3642.5 4486.9 1295.3 50.0000 12100.0arrow_forward
- Reduction in the particle size of a drug in a solid dosage form results in its faster dissolution. Please select one of the following correct option with respect to this statement A. Yes because reduction in size results in decrease in surface area B. Yes because reduction in size results in increase in surface area C. The above statement is incorrect because rate of dissolution, in fact, decreases with decrease in particle size of the drug __ Only B is correct __ Only C is correct __ Only A is correctarrow_forwardShow all steps.
