A. The expression of F in terms of d is F = 200 / d²

B. The force when the distance is 10 cm is 2 N

C. The distance when the force is 8 N is 5 cm

D. When the distance, d is halved, the force F becomes four times the initial force

<h3>A. How to determine the expression </h3>

From the question given above,

F ∝ 1 / d²

F = K / d²

Cross multiply

K = Fd²

But

F = 50 N

d = 2 cm

Thus

K = Fd²

K = 50 × 2²

K = 200 Ncm²

Therefore, the expression is given as

F = K / d²

F = 200 / d²

<h3>B. How to determine F when d = 10</h3>

d = 10 cm
K = 200 Ncm²
F =?

F = K / d²

F = 200 / 10²

F = 2 N

<h3>C. How to determine d when F = 8 N</h3>

K = 200 Ncm²
F = 8 N
d = ?

F = K / d²

8 = 200 / d²

Cross multiply

8 × d² = 200

Divide both sides by 8

d² = 200 /8

d² = 25

Take the square root of both sides

d = √25

d = 5 cm

<h3>D. How to determine F when d is halved</h3>

Initial Force (F₁) = F
Initial distance (d₁) = d
Final distance (d₂) = 1/2 d = 0.5d
Final final (F₂) =?

K = Fd² = constant

Thus

F₁d₁² = F₂d₂²

F × d² = F₂ × (0.5d)²

F × d² = F₂ × 0.25d²

Divide both sides by 0.25d²

F₂ = (F × d² ) / 0.25d²

F₂ = F / 0.25

F₂ = 4F

Thus, when the distance is halved, the force will increase by a factor of 4

What is the value of c in the equation below? 2^-4(2^2)=a^b=c

Triss [41]

Answer:

The answer is option 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use Indices Law,

${a}^{m} \times {a}^{n} = {a}^{m + n}$

${a}^{ - n} = \frac{1}{ {a}^{n} }$

So for this question :

${2}^{ - 4} \times {2}^{2}$

$= {2}^{ - 4 + 2}$

$= {2}^{ - 2}$

${a}^{b} = c \\ c = {2}^{ - 2}$

$c = \frac{1}{ {2}^{2} }$

$c = \frac{1}{4}$

Here, y = -15 with x = -20
LCM of 15 & 20 is 60, so divide 15 & 20 from 60,
60/15 = 4 & 60/20 = 3

Now, multiply the results with intial values,
4y = 3x
y = 3/4 x

When y = 12,
x = 12 * 4/3
x = 48 / 3
x = 16

In short, Your Answer would be 16

Hope this helps!

The function is given $f(x)=2^x+3$ .

Now let's solve for $f(-2)$ .

$f(-2)=2^{-2}+3$

Rule of negative exponent: $x^{-1}=\frac{1}{x^1}$ .

$f(-2)=\frac{1}{2^2}+3$

$f(-2)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{1}$

Rule for sum of fractions: $\frac{a}{b}+\frac{c}{d}=\frac{ad+bc}{bd}$ .

$f(-2)=\frac{13}{4}$

And the result is:

$f(-2)=\boxed{\frac{13}{4}=3.25}$
