This question has several parts that must be completed sequentially. If you skip a part of the question, you will not receive an

y points for the skipped part, and you will not be able to come back to the skipped part. Tutorial Exercise A particle is moved along the x-axis by a force that measures 9/(6 x) pounds at a point x feet from the origin. Find the work W done in moving the particle from the origin to a distance of 12 ft.

Answer:

5.0 ft-lbf

Step-by-step explanation:

The force is

F = \dfrac{9}{6^x}

This force is not a constant force. For a non-constant force, the work done, <em>W</em>, is

W = \int\limits^{x_2}_{x_1} {F(x)} \, dx

with x_1 and x_2 the initial and final displacements respectively.

From the question, x_1  =0 and x_2 = 12.

Then

W = \int\limits^{12}_0 {\dfrac{9}{6^x}} \, dx

Evaluating the indefinite integral,

\int\limits \dfrac{9}{6^x} \, dx  =9 \int\limits\!\left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^x \, dx

From the rules of integration,

\int\limits a^x\, dx = \dfrac{a^x}{\ln a}

9 \int\limits \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^x \, dx = 9\times\dfrac{(1/6)^x}{\ln(1/6)} = -5.0229\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^x

Returning the limits,

\left.-5.0229\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^x\right|^{12}_0 = -5.0229(0.1667^{12} - 0.1667^0) = 5.0229 \approx 5.0 \text{ ft-lbf}

Which equation reprints the slope intercept form of the line below ? Y- intercept = (0,2) slope = -3/7
Ann [662]

Answer:

y = -\frac{3}{7} x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of the line is (0,2)

The slope of the line is  -\frac{3}{7}

We derive the slope of a line by dividing the change in y by the change in x

So,

\frac{y - 2}{x - 0} =  -\frac{3}{7}

y - 2 =  -\frac{3}{7} x

The equation of the line therefore is;

y =  -\frac{3}{7} x + 2
