A land surveyor places two stakes 500 ft apart. He locates the midpoint between the two stakes and creates a perpendicular to the line that connects these two stakes. He needs to place a third stake 100 ft away along this perpendicular line. To apply the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem, the land surveyor would need to identify

  the location of the third stake as equidistant from the original two stakes

the location of the third stake as closer to one of the original two stakes

a line parallel to the line connecting the two stakes

a line congruent to the line connecting the two stakes

A large, two-story office building has a first floor which measures 500 ft by 750 ft and a second story which is 500 ft by 500 ft. This building used 76,650 GWh of electricity last year and 120,035 therms of natural gas. a) What is the EUI of the building? How does this compare to similar buildings? b) Currently the office encourages carpooling and public transportation and therefore does not have a parking structure attached. They are considering adding this...

An entrepreneur owns some land that he wishes to develop. He identifies two development options: build condominiums or build apartment buildings. Accordingly, he reviews public records and derives the following summary measures concerning annual profitability based on a random sample of 35 for each such local business venture. For the analysis, he uses a historical (population) standard deviation of $21,800 for condominiums and $19,600 for apartment buildings. Use Table 1. Sample 1 represents condominiums and Sample 2 represents apartment buildings....

An entrepreneur owns some land that he wishes to develop. He identifies two development options: build condominiums or build apartment buildings. Accordingly, he reviews public records and derives the following summary measures concerning annual profitability based on a random sample of 34 for each such local business ventures. For the analysis, he uses a historical (population) standard deviation of $21,900 for condominiums and $19,600 for apartment buildings. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or...

Consider the steady flow between two flat plates. The plates are 10 cm apart and the width of the channel is 10 cm. Water is the working fluid. The flow velocity varies linearly from zero at the bottom plate to 10 m/s at the top plate. (This general class of flows is known as Couette Flow). Determine the total mass flow and momentum per unit time crossing an imaginary plane across the channel.

A teacher places a fluid substance, with a refractive index of 1.65, between two horizontal panes of flat glass (each of which has n = 1.50). He then illuminates the assembly from above with monochromatic light (λ = 670 nm). What is the minimum thickness (in nm) that the liquid layer must have, if the light is to be strongly reflected back toward its source?

Suppose we have two galaxies that are sufficiently far apart so that the distance between them increases due to Hubble's expansion. If I were to connect these two galaxies with a rope, would there be tension in the rope? Would the tension increase with time? Is the origin of the tension some sort of drag between the expanding space and matter?
