Answer:

k = \frac{980a}{b}

Step-by-step explanation:

Fisherman noticed a stretch in the spring = 'b' centimetres

Weight of the fish = a kilograms

If force applied on a spring scale makes a stretch in the spring then Hook's law for the force applied is,

F = kΔx

Where k = spring constant

Δx = stretch in the spring

F = weight applied

F = mg

Here 'm' = mass of the fish

g = gravitational constant

F = a(9.8)

  = 9.8a

Δx = b centimetres = 0.01b meters

Therefore, 9.8a = k(0.01b)

k = \frac{9.8a}{0.01b}

k = \frac{980a}{b}

Therefore, spring constant of the spring will be determined by the expression, k = \frac{980a}{b}

Answer:

Adriana= $960

Tania= $1080

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see the attached pictures for the full solution.

• Do note that you could also use 'x' or other variables to represent the amount of money either Adriana or Tania brought for shopping. A unit was used in this case since I used model method to represent the given situation.

A cylinder has diameter of 4ft and a height of 9ft. Explain whether halving the diameter has the same effect on the surface area
elena55 [62]

Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of cylinder is given by the formula:

SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h

Where

r is radius ( diameter is 4, so radius is 4/2 = 2)

h is height ( h = 9)

Lets find original surface are:

SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h\\SA=2\pi (2)^2 + 2\pi (2) (9)\\SA=8\pi +36\pi\\SA=44\pi

<u>Halving diameter:</u>

diameter would be 4/2 = 2, so radius would be 2/2 = 1

So, SA would be:

SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h\\SA=2\pi (1)^2 + 2\pi (1) (9)\\SA=2\pi +18\pi\\SA=20\pi

<u>Halving height:</u>

Height is 9, halving would make it 9/2 = 4.5

Now, calculating new SA:

SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h\\SA=2\pi (2)^2 + 2\pi (2) (4.5)\\SA=8\pi + 18\pi\\SA= 26\pi

Original SA is 44\pi,

Halving diameter makes it 20\pi

Halving height makes it 26\pi

So, halving diameter does not have same effect as halving height.
