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}

BD = AC Given. BD cuts AC in half. That's what bisectors do.

BD = BD Reflexive property of a line (it is always equal to itself).

<ADB = <ADC = 90o

DB is perpendicular to AC Given.

<ADB + <ADC = 180o The two are supplementary.

Each angle = 90o Perpendicular means that one line meets another at 90o

2x = 180

x = 90o

Since each of the enclosed angles = 90, two have two triangles congruent by SAS <<<< Answer

Answer:

My brain just exploded. I tried imagining what the shape would look like, and that didn't work. Also, I tried drawing the shape and that didn't work. I have no idea what the shape looks like. If you still need help with this question, maybe you can repost it with an image attached so we can know what the shape looks like.
