A rocket ship is launched from rest from a space station. Its destinations 1.0 x 10^11 m away. The ship is programmed to accelerate at 7.4 m/s^2 for 12 hours. After 12 hours, the ship will travel at constant velocity until it comes within 1.0 x 10^10 m of its destination. Then, it will fire its retrorockets to land safely.

A 10 cm long thin glass rod uniformly charged to +10 nC and a 10 cm long thin plastic rod uniformly charged to -10nC are placed side by side 4 cm apart.
a. Find the electric field at distances 1.0 cm, 2.0 cm and 3.0 cm from the glass rod along the line connecting the midpoints of the two rods. (Hint: treat the rods as a uniform line of charges.)
b. If the plastic rod is exchanged for a glass rod of the same size uniformly charged to +10 nC, what is the new electric field at 1.0 cm, 2.0 cm and 3.0 cm?

BBT Production is promoting a concert in Kuala Lumpur. The bands will receive a flat fee of RM7 million in cash. The concert will be shown worldwide on closed-circuit television. BBT will collect 100% of the receipts and will return 30% to the individual local closed-circuit theater managers. BBT expects to sell 1.1 million seats at a net average price of RM13 each.
Required:
|
a) |
The general manager of BBT Production is trying to decide what amount to spend for advertising. What is the most BBT could spend and still break even on overall operations, assuming sales of 1.1 million tickets? |
|
b) |
If BBT desires an operating income of rm500,000, how many seats would have to sell? Assume the average price is RM13 and total fixed cost (advertising above) |

1. Suppose Mary has an income of $315 per month and eats out for $15 a dinner and sees movies at a cost of $9 per movie.
a.Explain why you do not need to graph her budget constraint to determine the slope, given the information above. What is the value of the slope of the budget constraint?
b.Suppose Mary finds a new job and now makes $360 per month. However, her local movie theater raises ticket prices to $12. Draw Mary’s new budget constraint, with the quantity of movies on the vertical axis and dinners on the horizontal axis, appropriately labeling the values for the x-intercept and y-intercept.
c.Is it feasible for Mary to go out to dinner 12 times and go to the movies 17 times during the month with her new income? Explain your answer.
