Cooling Air As a parcel of air rises (for example, as it is pushed over a mountain), it cools at the dry adiabatic lapse rate of 5.5°F per 1000 feet until it reaches its dew point. If the ground temperature is 67°F, write a formula for the sequence of temperatures, {Tn}, of a parcel of air that has risen n thousand feet. What is
the temperature of a parcel ofair if it has risen 5000 feet?
A ball is dropped from a height of 20 feet. Each time it strikes the ground, it bounces up to three-quarters of the previous height.
(a) What height will the ball bounce up to after it strikes the ground for the third time?
(b) How high will it bounce after it strikes the ground for the nth time?
(c) How many times does the ball need to strike the ground before its bounce is less than 6 inches?
(d) What total distance does the ball travel before it stops bouncing?
You have just signed a 7-year professional football league contract with a beginning salary of \(2,000,000 per year. Management gives you the following options with regard to your salary over the 7 years.
1. A bonus of \)100,000 each year
2. An annual increase of 4.5% per year beginning after 1 year
3. An annual increase of $95,000 per year beginning after 1 year
Which option provides the most money over the 7-year
period? Which the least? Which would you choose? Why?
Initially, a pendulum swings through an arc of 2 feet. On each successive swing, the length of the arc is 0.9 of the previous length.
(a) What is the length of the arc of the 10th swing?
(b) On which swing is the length of the arc first less than 1 foot?
(c) After 15 swings, what total length will the pendulum have swung?
(d) When it stops, what total length will the pendulum have swung?
Extended Principle of Mathematical Induction The Extended Principle of Mathematical Induction states that if Conditions I and II hold, that is,
(I) A statement is true for a natural number j
(II) If the statement is true for some natural number , then it is also true for the next natural number .then the statement is true for all natural numbers . Use the Extended Principle of Mathematical Induction to show that the number of diagonals in a convex polygon of n sides is .
