1) A projectile has the least speed at what point in its path?

a) At its maximum height.

b) Just before it hits the ground.

c) Just after it's fired.

d) After three seconds of travel.

2) The magnitude of a vector can never equal the length of one of its components.

True

False

3) Can a particle with a constant speed ever be accelerating?

a) Yes, because acceleration and velocity are unrelated.

b) No, because its speed is constant.

c) Yes, because it's speed is changing.

d) Yes, if it's changing direction.

(1 point) An insurance company states that at least 86% of its claims are settled within 30 days. A consumer group selected a random sample of 73 of the company's claims to test this statement. They found that 60 of the claims were settled within 30 days. Does the consumer group have evidence to disbelieve the insurance company's claim? 1. Write the hypotheses to test if the rate of claims settled within 30 days is significantly less than 86%. H0H0:...
