The left-field wall at a baseball park is 320 feet down the third-base line from home​ plate; the wall itself is 38 feet high. A batted ball must clear the wall to be a home run. Suppose a ball leaves the​ bat, 3 feet off the​ ground, at an angle of 45degrees. Use gequals32 ​ft/sec squared as the acceleration due to gravity and ignore any air resistance. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (d). (a) Find parametric equations that model the position of the ball as a function of time. (b) What is the maximum height of the ball if it leaves the bat with a speed of 120 miles per​ hour? Give your answer in feet. ​(c) What is the​ ball's horizontal distance from home plate at its maximum​ height? Give your answer in feet. ​(d) If the ball is hit straight down the third-base​ line, will it clear the​ wall? If it​ does, by how many feet does it clear the​ wall?

Waterways has two major public-park projects to provide with comprehensive irrigation in one of its service...

Waterways has two major public-park projects to provide with comprehensive irrigation in one of its service locations this month. Job J57 and Job K52 involve 15 acres of landscaped terrain, which will require special-order, sprinkler heads to meet the specifications of the project. Using a job cost system to produce these parts, the following events occurred during December.

Raw materials were requisitioned from the company’s inventory on December 2 for $5,058; on December 8 for $1,056; and on December 14 for $3,459. In each instance, two-thirds (2/3) of these materials were for J57 and the rest for K52.

Six time tickets were turned in for these two projects for a total amount of 18 hours of work. All the workers were paid $17.5 per hour. The time tickets were dated December 3, December 9, and December 15. On each of those days, 6 labor hours were spent on these jobs, two-thirds (2/3) for J57 and the rest for K52.

The predetermined overhead rate is based on machine hours. The expected machine hour use for the year is 2,110 hours, and the anticipated overhead costs are $844,000 for the year. The machines were used by workers on projects K52 and J57 on December 3, 9, and 15. Six machine hours were used for project K52 (2 each day), and 8.5 machine hours were used for project J57 (2.5 the first day and 3 each of the other days). Both of these special orders were completed on December 15, producing 200 sprinkler heads for J57 and 100 sprinkler heads for K52.

Additional job order activities during this period included:
Dec. 1 Purchased raw materials from Durbin Supply Company on account for $53,200.
Dec. 2 Issued $40,000 of direct materials from the company’s inventory to jobs other than K52 and J57 and $3,000 of indirect materials.
Dec. 12 Paid Waterways’ factory salaries and wages for $65,500.
Dec. 13 Paid the factory’s water bill of $8,900.
Dec. 18 Transferred $49,500 of costs from other completed jobs to finished goods.
Dec. 21 Paid the factory’s electric bill of $12,100 for Waterways’ factory.
Dec. 31 Made adjusting entries forth factory that included accrued property taxes of $12,000, prepaid insurance of $8,800, and accumulated depreciation of $16,100.
Set up the job cost sheets for Job No. J57 and Job No. K52. Determine the total cost for each manufacturing special order for these jobs. (Round unit costs to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.25.)

I often see many more women at the park exercising than I do men. Due to my observations, I believe that women exercise more often than men. In order to test my hypothesis, I asked 10 random men and 10 random women how many times they exercise a week. The men's answers were: 6, 2, 3, 1, 4, 3, 2, 7, 4, 2, and the women's were: 5, 4, 2, 4, 7, 6, 5, 6, 4, 3. Is there significant evidence to conclude that the average number of days exercised in a week for women is higher than that of men? Please calculate at a 95% Confidence Interval.

You visit a national park with your friend one weekend. You encounter an old railroad tunnel which is very dark and you are not sure if the tunnel is blocked on the other end. You happen to have a frequency generator app on your cell phone frequency. You decide that to generate resonances in the tunnel with your app. You hear successive resonances at 55Hz, 57.5 Hz, 60Hz, 62.5 Hz …etc. (I) Can you use this information alone to determine if the tunnel opened or closed at the other end? (II) What is the length of the tunnel? (III) What is the maximum number of resonances you can produce in this tunnel between 50 Hz and 100 Hz?   Use 343.0 m/s for the speed of sound in air. (

Much of Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park is over 12,000 feet high. Although it is a beautiful drive in summer months, in winter the road is closed because of severe weather conditions. Sustained gale-force winds (over 32 miles per hour and often over 90 miles per hour) occur on the average of 0.7 times every 56 hours at a Trail Ridge Road weather station.

(a) Let r = frequency with which gale-force winds occur in a given time interval. Explain why the Poisson probability distribution would be a good choice for the random variable r.

1) Frequency of gale-force winds is a common occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are independent.

2) Frequency of gale-force winds is a rare occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are dependent.  

3) Frequency of gale-force winds is a common occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are dependent.

4) Frequency of gale-force winds is a rare occurrence. It is reasonable to assume the events are independent.
