You deposit 500 pounds at time t=0. At t=5 years, you have 800 pounds. The amount of money you have in the bank can be modeled as V(t)=A*(1+r)^t, where r is the interest rate. Find A and the interest rate r. After how many years will you have 1200 pounds.

At t=0, you deposit 500 pounds in the bank account: V(0)=500=A. At t=5, that amount of money is now, V(5)=800=500*(1+r)^5 i.e. 1+r = 1.6^(1/5) = 1.0986 (4dp) So the interest rate r is 9.86% (3 s.f.)Let T ...

Particle A (60kg) moves right at 50m/s. It collides with particle B (250kg) moving left at 10m/s. If after the collision particle A moves left at 20m/s, calculate the final velocity of particle B

First the total initial momentum of the particle system is calculated. Treat right as the positive x-direction and left as the negative x-direction. Then:Total initial momentum (Pi) = Inital momentum of A...
