A searchlight is shaped like a parabola. If the light source is located 3 feet from the base along the axis of symmetry and the depth of the searchlight is 4 feet, what should the width of the opening of the searchlight be?
Answers
9514 1404 393
Answer:
8√3 ≈ 13.86 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The light source is usually placed at the focus, so the focus-vertex distance is p=3 ft. The equation for the parabola with its vertex at the origin is ...
y = 1/(4p)x^2
y = 1/12x^2
The opening for some y-value extends ±x from the axis of symmetry, so is a total of 2x in width.
For y=4, the corresponding value of x is ...
4 = 1/12x^2
48 = x^2
√48 = x = 4√3
Then the width of the searchlight opening is ...
2(4√3 ft) = 8√3 ft ≈ 13.86 ft

Show A and Show B are two of the most popular television shows of all time. The number of episodes of each show are consecutive even integers whose sum is 570. If there are more episodes of Show A, how many episodes of each were there?
Answers
Answer:
A = 286 episodes
B = 284 episodes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n = the [tex]\text{number of episodes}[/tex] of show B
n + 2 = the [tex]\text{number of episodes}[/tex] of show A
Therefore, according to the question,
The sum of the number of the episodes of each show are consecutive even integers = 570
Therefore,
n + n + 2 = 570
2n + 2 = 570
2n = 568
n = 284
Therefore, the number of episodes for B = 284
The number of episodes for A = n + 2 = 284 + 2
= 286

Here we know that:
[tex]m(v) = \frac{M_0}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{V}{C} } }[/tex]
Where V is the speed, C = 3*10^8 m/s
We want to solve:
[tex]m(v) = \frac{M_0}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{V}{C} } } = 2*M_0[/tex]
We can just isolate V from the above equation, so we will get:
[tex]\frac{M_0}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{V}{C} } } = 2*M_0[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{V}{C} } } = 2[/tex]
[tex]1 = 2\sqrt{1 - \frac{V}{C} }[/tex]
[tex](1/2)^2 = 1 - \frac{V}{C}[/tex]
[tex]V = (1 - (1/4))*C = (3/4)*C = (3/4)*3*10^8 m/s = (9/4)*10^8 m/s[/tex]

The shortest route from London to Edinburgh is 400 miles.
A lorry is expected to take 10 hours to travel this route.
The lorry actually travels by a different route which increases the distance by 15%, but it still arrives in 10 hours.
By how many more mph than the expected speed does the lorry travel?
Answers
Answer:
The lorry travels by 6 mph more than the expected speed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Velocity formula:
Velocity is distance divided by time, that is:
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
Shortest route:
400 miles in 10 hours, which means that [tex]d = 400, v = 10[/tex]. So
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{400}{10} = 40[/tex]
In mph.
The lorry actually travels by a different route which increases the distance by 15%, but it still arrives in 10 hours.
Distance is multiplied by 100% + 15% = 115% = 1.15, so:
[tex]d = 1.15*400 = 460[/tex]
Then
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{460}{10} = 46[/tex]
46 mph
By how many more mph than the expected speed does the lorry travel?
46 - 40 = 6 mph
The lorry travels by 6 mph more than the expected speed.
