The safe load, L, of a wooden beam supported at both ends varies jointly as the width, w, the square of the depth, d, and invers

ely as the length, l. A wooden beam 3in. wide, 6in. deep, and 11ft long holds up 1213lb. What load would a beam 6in. wide, 3in. deep and 12ft long of the same material support? (Round off your answer to the nearest pound.)

Answer:

L' = 555.95 lb

Explanation:

Analyzing the given conditions in the question, we get

The safe load, L is directly proportional to width (w) and square of depth (d²)

 also,

L is inversely proportional length (l) i.e L = k/l

combining the above conditions, we get an equation as:

 L = k(wd²/l)

 now, for the first case we have been given

w = 3 in

d = 6 in

l = 11 ft

L = 1213 lbs

 thus,

1213 lb = k ((3 × 6²)/11)

or

k = 123.54 lbs/(ft.in³)  

Now,

Using the calculated value of k to calculate the value of L in the second case  

in the second case, we have

w = 6 in

d =3 in

l = 12 ft

Final Safe load L' =  123.54 × (6 × 3²/12)

or

L' = 555.95 lb

Find the mass of an object if a 40 N of force causes the object to accelerate at 5.5 m/s/s
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{40}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>8 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

Find equation tangent to a circle at given point
vlabodo [156]

the equation of the tangent line must be passed on a point A (a,b) and perpendicular to the radius of the circle. <span>
I will take an example for a clear explanation:
let x² + y² = 4 is the equation of the circle, its center is C(0,0). And we assume that the tangent line passes to the point A(2.3).

</span>since the tangent passes to the A(2,3), the line must be perpendicular to the radius of the circle. 

<span>Let's find the equation of the line parallel to the radius.</span>

<span>The line passes to the A(2,3) and C (0,0). y= ax+b is the standard form of the equation. AC(-2, -3) is a vector parallel to CM(x, y).</span>

det(AC, CM)= -2y +3x =0, is the equation of the line // to the radius.

let's find the equation of the line perpendicular to this previous line.

let M a point which lies on the line. so MA.AC=0 (scalar product), 

it is (2-x, 3-y) . (-2, -3)= -4+4x + -9+3y=4x +3y -13=0 is the equation of tangent
