Mac and tosh are arguing in the cafeteria. mac says that if he flings the jell-o with a greater speed it will have a greater inertia. tosh argues that inertia does not depend upon speed, but rather upon mass. who do you agree with? explain why.

Based on their discussion, tosh' idea is right. because intertia does not depends on speed rather upon mass. The more mass an object has the more inertia it has. If an object is heavy, it has a tendency to remain steady and will not be moving.

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.
