A freight and passenger train share the same track. The average speed of the freight train is 45 mph, whereas that of the passenger train is 70 mph. The passenger train is scheduled to leave 20 minutes after the freight train departs from the same station. Determine the location where a siding would need to be provided to allow the passenger train to pass the freight train. Also determine the time it takes for the freight train to arrive at the siding. As a safety precaution, the separation headway between the two trains at the siding should be at least equal to 6 minutes.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The first siding should be located at 30 miles

The time for the freight to arrive at the siding is 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let [tex]T_f[/tex] represent the time for the freight train

Also, let [tex]T_P[/tex] represent the time at which the passenger train reach the location

Let Y represents the location where the location of the siding of the track needed to take place.

Thus, for freight time:

[tex]T_f = \dfrac{Y}{45} --- (1)[/tex]

The siding location is:

[tex]T_P = \dfrac{2}{6}+\dfrac{Y}{70}[/tex]

[tex]T_P =0.333+\dfrac{Y}{70} --- (2)[/tex]

To determine Y:

[tex]T_P -T_f = 0.1 --- (3)[/tex]

replacing the value of [tex]T_f[/tex]  and [tex]T_P[/tex] in the above equation (3), we have:

[tex]0.333+\dfrac{Y}{70} - \dfrac{Y}{45} =0.1[/tex]

collecting like terms, we have:

[tex]\dfrac{Y}{70} - \dfrac{Y}{45} =0.1-0.333[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{45Y- 70Y}{3150} =-0.233[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{-25Y}{3150} =-0.233[/tex]

- 25Y = -0.233 × 3150

- 25Y = -733.95

Y = -733.95/-25

Y = 29.36 miles

Y [tex]\simeq[/tex] 30 miles to the nearest whole number

Thus, the first siding should be located at 30 miles

To estimate the time for the fight to arrive the siding, we replace 30 miles for [tex]T_f[/tex] in equation (1).

Then, we have:

[tex]T_f = \dfrac{Y}{45}[/tex]

[tex]T_f = \dfrac{30}{45}[/tex]

[tex]T_f =0.667\ hr[/tex]

[tex]T_f =(0.667 \times 60 )minutes[/tex]

[tex]T_f =40.2 \ minutes[/tex]

[tex]\mathsf{T_f \simeq 40 \ minutes}[/tex]

Thus, the time for the freight to arrive at the siding is 40 minutes

1-3. Find the center point, the radius and the diameter for the following equation: x² + y2 = 16

Answers

Answer:

Center: (0, 0)

Radius: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle Standard Equation: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

(h, k) is center

r is radius

We see that our h and our k are both 0.

∴ Our center is (0, 0), origin.

We see that our r² = 16

√r² = √16

∴ Our radius is equal to 4

Mahalia is making cloth napkins. She bought fabric that is 12 inches wide and 6 yards long. How much napkins can Mahalia make if each napkin is 1 foot by 1 foot?

Answers

She can make 72
Find the area of the fabric 12x6=72
Area of napkins 1x1 =1
divide fabric by napkins
72/1=72 napkins can be made

Mahalia can make a total of 18 napkins using the fabric which she has bought.

What is surface area?

The quantity of space enclosing a three-dimensional shape's exterior is its surface area.

In other meaning, if we say side square then it is an area of the square but for a cuboid, there are 6 faces so the surface area will be external to all 6 surfaces area.

Given that,

She has 12 inches wide and 6 yards long fabric.

Since 1 yards = 36 inches.

So,

6 yards = 6 × 36 = 216 inches.

Now,

The total surface area of napkins ⇒ 12 × 216

⇒ 2592 inch²

Area for 1 napkin = 1 foot × 1 foot

Since 1 foot = 12 inches

So,

Area for 1 napkin = 12 × 12 = 144 inch²

Number of napkins can be made = The total surface area of napkins / Area for 1 napkin

Number of napkins that can be made = 2592 inch² / 144 inch²

⇒ 18

Hence "Mahalia can make a total of 18 napkins using the fabric which she has bought".

Answer:

[tex]\int\limits^{\sqrt{\pi}}_0 {4x^3\cos(x^2)} \, dx=-4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the integral:

[tex]\int\limits^{\sqrt{\pi}}_0 {4x^3\cos(x^2)} \, dx[/tex]

As told, let's use u-substitution first and then use integration by parts.

For the u-substitution, we can let u to be equal to x². So:

[tex]u=x^2[/tex]

Differentiate:

[tex]du=2x\, dx[/tex]

We can rewrite our integral as:

[tex]\int\limits^{\sqrt{\pi}}_0 {2x(2x^2)\cos(x^2)} \, dx[/tex]

Therefore, by making our u-substitution, our integral is now:

[tex]\int\limits {2u\cos(u)} \, du[/tex]

We also need to change our bounds. Substitute them into u. So:

[tex]u=\sqrt{\pi}^2=\pi\\u=(0)^2=0[/tex]

Therefore, our integral with our new bounds is:

[tex]\int\limits^{\pi}_{0} {2u\cos(u)} \, du[/tex]

Now, let's use integration by parts. Integration by parts is given by:

[tex]\int\limits {v}\, dy=vy-\int y\, dv[/tex]

(I changed the standard u to y because we are already using u).

Let's let v be 2u and let's let dy be cos(u). Thus:

[tex]v=2u\\dv=2\,du[/tex]

And:

[tex]dy=\cos(u)\\y=\sin(u)[/tex]

So, do integration by parts:

[tex]=2u\sin(u)-\int \sin(u)2\,du[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]=2u\sin(u)-2\int \sin(u)\,du[/tex]

Evaluate the integral:

[tex]=2u\sin(u)+2\cos(u)[/tex]

Now, use the bounds. So:

[tex](2(\pi)\sin(\pi)+2\cos(\pi))-(2(0)\sin(0)+2\cos(0))[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]=(2\pi(0)+2(-1))-(0(0)+2(1))[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]=(-2)-(2)[/tex]

Subtract:

[tex]=-4[/tex]
