A whale of a time. Hacksaw's Boats of St. Lucia takes tourists on a daily dolphin/whale watch cruise. Its bro- chure claims an 85% chance of sighting a whale or a dolphin, and you can assume that sightings from day to day are independent. (a) If you take the dolphin/whale watch cruise on two consecutive days, what is the probability that you see a whale or a dolphin on both days? (b) If you take the dolphin/whale watch cruise on...

(11) Weight of a Humpback Whale. Researchers have found that the weight (in tons) of a Humpback Whale is linearly related to its length (in feet). Two measurements that researchers found were that for a length of 35 feet the weight is 16,0 tons and for a length 44 feet the weight is 38 tons. All resulting coefficients should be exact fractions, mixed fractions or integers. [Remember for part (a) you are finding a linear equation relating Wand 1] (a)...
of 28 > Attempt 2 v The molecular weight of sperm whale myoglobin is 17.8 kDa. The myoglobin content of sperm whale muscle is about 80 g kg-!. In contrast, the myoglobin content of some human muscles is about 8 g kg-! Compare the amounts of O, bound to myoglobin in human muscle and in sperm whale muscle. Assume that the myoglobin is saturated with Oy, and that the molecular weights of human and sperm whale myoglobin are the same....

A sperm whale can accelerate at about 0.0800 m/s2 when swimming on the surface of the ocean. How far will a sperm whale travel if it starts at a speed of 0.800 m/s and accelerates to a speed of 2.18 m/s? Assume the whale travels in a straight line. distance traveled:
The record blue whale shown below had a mass of 1.90 × 105 kg. Assuming that its average density was 0.920 g/cm3, as has been measured for other blue whales, what was the volume of the whale in cubic meters (m3)?
