A horizontal plane is ruled with parallel lines 2 inches apart. A two-inch needle is tossed randomly onto the plane. The probability that the needle will touch a line is $$ P=\frac{2}{\pi} \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \sin \theta d \theta $$ where \(\theta\) is the acute angle between the needle and any one of the parallel lines. Find this probability.
The Grand Canyon is 1800 meters deep at its deepest point. A rock is dropped from the rim above this point. Write the height of the rock as a function of the time \(t\) in seconds. How long will it take the rock to hit the canyon floor?
\(x(t)=t^{3}-6 t^{2}+9 t-2, \quad 0 \leq t \leq 5\) (a) Find the velocity and acceleration of the particle. (b) Find the open \(t\) -intervals on which the particle is moving to the right. (c) Find the velocity of the particle when the acceleration is \(0 .\)
