The situation is an example of an arithmetic progression through the data 90, 120, 150, .. . In this case, the arithmetic difference is 30. The expression that applies here is an = 90 + 30 * (n - 1) where n is the order of the term to be determined. If n is 8, then  the height is equal to a. 300 feet.

A mass weighting 16 lbs stretches a spring 3 inches. The mass is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance of 20 lbs when the
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The equation for the object's displacement is u(t)=0.583cos11.35t

Explanation:

Given:

m = 16 lb

δ = 3 in

The stiffness is:

k=\frac{m}{\delta } =\frac{16}{3} =5.33lb/in

The angular speed is:

w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } =\sqrt{\frac{5.33*386.4}{16} } =11.35rad/s

The damping force is:

F_{D} =cu

Where

FD = 20 lb

u = 4 ft/s = 48 in/s

Replacing:

c=\frac{F_{D} }{u} =\frac{20}{48} =0.42lbs/in

The critical damping is equal:

c_{c} =\frac{2k}{w} =\frac{2*5.33}{11.35} =0.94lbs/in

Like cc>c the system is undamped

The equilibrium expression is:

u(t)=u(o)coswt+u'(o)sinwt\\u(o)=7=0.583\\u'(o)=0\\u(t)=0.583coswt\\u(t)=0.583cos11.35t

Planet a and planet b are in circular orbits around a distant star. planet a is 7.8 times farther from the star than is planet
gogolik [260]
To find the ratio of planetary speeds Va/Vb we need the orbital velocity formula: 

V=√({G*M}/R), where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the distant star and R is the distance of the planet from the star it is orbiting. 

So Va/Vb=[√( {G*M}/Ra) ] / [√( {G*M}/Rb) ], in our case Ra = 7.8*Rb 

Va/Vb=[ √( {G*M}/{7.8*Rb} ) ]  / [√( {G*M}/Rb )], we put everything under one square root by the rule: (√a) / (√b) = √(a/b) 

Va/Vb=√ [ { (G*M)/(7.8*Rb) } / { (G*M)/(Rb) } ], when we cancel out G, M and Rb we get:

Va/Vb=√(1/7.8)/(1/1)=√(1/7.8)=0.358 so the ratio of Va/Vb = 0.358.

One mole of an unknown sample contains 120 g of carbon and 30.3 g of
barxatty [35]

atomic mass of carbon is C = 12 g/mol

atomic mass of hydrogen is H = 1 g/mol

now number of carbon atoms

N_c = \frac{120}{12} = 10

Similarly the number of hydrogen atoms are

N_H = \frac{30.3}{1} = 30

so Carbon atom and hydrogen atom must be in ratio of 10:30

so the ratio is 1:3

now the empirical formula is always in simplest form

CH_3
