An adventurous archaeologist crosses between two rock cliffs by slowly going hand over hand along a rope stretched between the cliffs. He stops to rest at the middle of the rope. The rope will break if the tension in it exceeds 3.00×104 N. Our hero’s mass is 85.0 kg. Part A: If the angle θ is 13.0 ∘, find the tension in the rope (answer in form T= ? N. Part B: What is the smallest value the angle θ can have if the rope is not to break?

A hunter is standing on flat ground between two vertical cliffs that are directly opposite one another. He is closer to one cliff than the other. He fires a gun and, after a while, hears three echoes. The second echo arrives 1.04 s after the first, and the third echo arrives 0.630 s after the second. Assuming that the speed of sound is 343 m/s and that there are no reflections of sound from the ground, find the distance (in...

A fly was found that had two mutations, Q&Z. Reciprocal crosses between wild type flies and Q&Z mutants gave all Q&Z mutant F1 progeny in all cases. These results suggest that the Q&Z mutations have an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. The genes X, Q, and Z appear to be linked. To map the genes the following crosses were done. A homozygous Q, Z mutant female was crossed to a homozygous X mutant males shown in the diagram below. X, Q,...

The UAE government is going to build a bridge between two of its islands in the Arabian Gulf Sea to allow the residences of these two islands to communicate with each other’s and with the rest of the country. The government will sign a long time contract with the biggest international company in this field to be responsible for this project. The government will pay an initial cost of 100,000,000 Dhs, a major re-design to fix any bugs in the...

Suppose voters are uniformly distributed along a continuum between 0 and 1. There are two candidates. Voters will vote for the candidate who locates closes to them. Candidates only care about receiving more votes than the other candidate (and prefer a tie to losing).What is the rationalizable set of locations for each candidate?

In a volleyball game between two teams , A and B, the game will be over if a team wins two out of three sets. In any set, team A has a 60 percent chance of winning the sets. Model this game as a Markov chain. Hint: Use (WA, WB) as the states where WA is the number of sets A wins and WB is the number of sets B wins. For example state (1,0) means A won 1 set...

Solve this problem by hand. A thermal interaction between two components requires that both components have similar temperature. One random sample for each component was obtained. The data is summarized in the table below: Component 1 55 54 53 54 Component 2 54 52 53 Calculate x1,s1,x2,and s2 Is there evidence to support that the two components has the same temperature. Assume α=0.05 . Assume that both populations are normally distributed with equal unknown variances Construct two sided 95% CI...

• A uniform electric field between two circular plates has a direction along the positive z axis and is increasing in strength. The plates are centred on the z-axis at z = ±5 mm and has a radius of 2.0 cm. What is the direction of the magnetic field in a point P with (x, y, z) = (0, 3.0 cm, 0). My prof says that the magnetic field is pointing into the page at point P but I don't...
