A sample of N = 9 students has aΣX = 52 and ΣX2= 322. For this sample, what is the standard deviation? Use the formula shown below. BE SURE TO ROUND OFF ALL DECIMALS TO 2 DECIMAL PLACES.

Total solidification times of three casting geometries are to be compared: a sphere, a cylinder, in which the length-to-diameter ration - 1.0, and a cube. volume = 1000 cm^3 for all three shhapes, and the same casting alloy is used. a) determine the solidification times of each geometry b) based on the results of part (a), which geometric element would make the best riser? c) if the mold constant = 3.5 min/cm^2 in chvorinov's rule, compute the total solidification time for each casting.

2. which of the following does not affect the electrical resistance of a body? a. material composing the body b. bodies directly surrounding the body c. length of the body > d. temperature of the body

The center of a long frictionless rod is pivoted at the origin, and the rod is forced to rotate in a vertical plane with constant angular velocity \omega. write down the lagrangian for a bead of mass m threaded on the rod, using r as your generalized coordinate, where r, \phi are the polar coordinates of the bead. (notice that \phi is not an independent variable since it is fixed by the rotation of the rod tobe \phi = \omega * t) solve lagrange's equation for r(t). what happens if the bead is initially at rest at the origin? if it is released from any point ro > 0, show that r(t) eventually grows exponentially. explain your results in terms of the centrifugal force m* \omega ^2 *r.
