Remark
I like to work from the original equation.
Givens
T = 2.2 seconds
pi = 3.14
L = ??
Substitute and Solve
T = 2*pi*sqrt(L/32) Find the value of 2*pi
2.2 = 2*3.14* sqrt(L/32)
2.2 = 6.28 * sqrt(L/32) Divide both sides by 6.28
2.2/6.28 = sqrt(L/32)
0.35032 = sqrt(L/32) Square both sides.
0.122723 = L/32 Multiply both sides by 32
0.122723 * 32 = L
L = 3.927 feet. <<<<< Length pendulum creating 2.2 seconds.
Not proportional because 2 times 32 is 64 not 72
Answer:
a = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
-5⁄2 a + 5 = 25
Subtract 5 from each side
-5⁄2 a + 5-5 = 25-5
-5/2 a = 20
Multiply each side by -2/5 to isolate a
-2/5 * -5/2 a = -2/5 *20
a = -8
