Answer: Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of DE = 13 cm

Length of EF = 26 cm

Length of BC = 12 cm

Length of AB = x cm

Using the Two transversal proportionality Corollary, we get that

$\dfrac{13}{13+26}=\dfrac{12}{12+x}\\\\\dfrac{13}{39}=\dfrac{12}{12+x}\\\\\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{12}{12+x}\\\\12+x=12\times 3\\\\12+x=36\\\\x=36-12\\\\x=24\ cm$

Hence, The value of x is equal to 24 cm.

Therefore, Third option is correct.

I hope this helps you

12/12+x=13/13+26

12/12+x=13/39

12/12+x=1/3

12+x=36

x=24

Find the center of mass of the wire that lies along the curve r and has density =4(1 sin4tcos4t)

dolphi86 [110]

The mass of the wire is found to be 40π√2 units.

To calculate the mass of the wire which runs along the curve r ( t ) with the density function δ=5.

The general formula is,

Mass = $\int_a^b \delta\left|r^{\prime}(t)\right| d t$

To find, we must differentiate this same given curve r ( t ) with respect to t to estimate |r'(t)|.

The given integration limits in this case are a = 0, b = 2π.

Now, as per the question;

The equation of the curve is given as;

r(t) = (4cost)i + (4sint)j + 4tk

Now, differentiate this same given curve r ( t ) with respect to t.

$\begin{aligned}\left|r^{\prime}(t)\right| &=\sqrt{(-4 \sin t)^2+(4 \cos t)^2+4^2} \\&=\sqrt{16 \sin ^2 t+16 \cos ^2 t+16} \\&=\sqrt{16\left(\sin t^2+\cos ^2 t\right)+16}\end{aligned}$

Further simplifying;

$\begin{aligned}&=\sqrt{16(1)+16} \\&=\sqrt{16+16} \\&=\sqrt{32} \\\left|r^{\prime}(t)\right| &=4 \sqrt{2}\end{aligned}$

Now, use integration to find the mass of the wire;

$\begin{aligned}&=\int_a^b \delta\left|r^{\prime}(t)\right| d t \\&=\int_0^{2 \pi} 54 \sqrt{2} d t \\&=20 \sqrt{2} \int_0^{2 \pi} d t \\&=20 \sqrt{2}[t]_0^{2 \pi} \\&=20 \sqrt{2}[2 \pi-0] \\&=40 \pi \sqrt{2}\end{aligned}$
