How does the center of mass velocity of the two objects which collide change during an elastic collision? Inelastic collision? Explain.
In an inelastic collision, the forces between the two gliders are equal and opposite according to newtons 3rd law. What makes the energy gained by one object unequal (less) than the energy lost by the other in an inelastic collision?

For this final problem we will create two samples of dice rolls. First You need to roll two dice in the standard way 25 times and record the results. Then roll two dice in a “lucky” way 25 times and record the results. As you complete this problem use the known standard deviation for the sum of two dice : σ1 = 2.415 and σ2 = 2.415
(a) Write down the results of your rolls and find the average for the first sample, ¯x1, and the ”lucky” sample, ¯x2

(b) Create a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the averages of the two samples, µ1 − µ2.
(c) Create a hypothesis test to determine whether the average of the second sample is greater than the average of the first sample. Be sure to include:
i. The null and alternative hypotheses
ii. The test statistic (and how it was calculated)
iii. The p-value (and how it was calculated)
iv. Your conclusion with α = 0.05. Does this conclusion mean that the “lucky” rolls land on higher numbers than the regular rolls

Four bounds with 6, 12, 18, and 24 months of maturity and $10,000 face value are selling for $9,400, $8,900, $9,484, and $9,625 respectively. The first two are discount bonds, the third one pays 8% and the last one pays 9% /year coupon semi-annually. Using the bootstrapping method, calculate the 6, 12, 18, and 24 month zero rates.

Write a Java program (name it PasswordTest) that reads from the user a string input (representing a password) and determines whether the password is “Valid Password” or “Invalid Password”. A valid password has at least 7 characters and includes at least one lower-case letter, at least one upper-case letter, at least one digit, and at least one character that is neither a letter nor a digit. Your program will need to check each character in the string in order to render a verdict. For example, CS5000/01 is invalid password; however, Cs5000/01 is a valid password. The program should display the entered password and the judgment as shown in the following sample runs:
Entered Password: CS5000/01
Verdict: Invalid Password
Entered Password: Cs5000/011
Verdict: Valid Password
Entered Password: MyOldDogK9
Verdict: Invalid Password
Entered Password: MyOldDogK9#
Verdict: Valid Password
Entered Password: Ab1#
Verdict: Invalid Password
Document your code, and organize and space out your outputs as shown. Design your program such that it allows the user to re-run the program with different inputs in the same run (i.e., use a sentinel loop structure).

Jiminy’s Cricket Farm issued a bond with 30 years to maturity and a semiannual coupon rate of 6 percent 3 years ago. The bond currently sells for 92 percent of its face value. The company’s tax rate is 40 percent. The book value of the debt issue is $50 million. In addition, the company has a second debt issue on the market, a zero coupon bond with 12 years left to maturity; the book value of this issue is $50 million, and the bonds sell for 54 percent of par. |
