For a resistor in a direct current circuit that does not vary its resistance, the power that a resistor must dissipate is direct

ly proportional ti the square of the voltage across the resistor. The resistor must dissipate 1/16 watt of power when the voltage across the resistor is 14 volts. Find the power that the resistor must dissipate when the voltage across it is 42 volts.

THe problem is basically telling us: P=kV^2

where P is the power disappated and V^2 is our voltage squared.

\frac{1}{16}=k*14^2\implies\\ \frac{1}{16*196}=k \implies \\ \frac{1}{3136}=k

So, for the second example to find the power we simply have to plug k and our voltage back in, so:P=\frac{14^2*3^2}{14^2*6} \implies \\ P=\frac{9}{6}= \frac{3}{2}

Find the derivative of sinx/1+cosx, using quotient rule​
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

f'(x) = -1/(1 - Cos(x))

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient rule for derivation is:

For f(x) = h(x)/k(x)

f'(x) = \frac{h'(x)*k(x) - k'(x)*h(x)}{k^2(x)}

In this case, the function is:

f(x) = Sin(x)/(1 + Cos(x))

Then we have:

h(x) = Sin(x)

h'(x) = Cos(x)

And for the denominator:

k(x) = 1 - Cos(x)

k'(x) = -( -Sin(x)) = Sin(x)

Replacing these in the rule, we get:

f'(x) = \frac{Cos(x)*(1 - Cos(x)) - Sin(x)*Sin(x)}{(1 - Cos(x))^2}

Now we can simplify that:

f'(x) = \frac{Cos(x)*(1 - Cos(x)) - Sin(x)*Sin(x)}{(1 - Cos(x))^2} = \frac{Cos(x) - Cos^2(x) - Sin^2(x)}{(1 - Cos(x))^2}

And we know that:

cos^2(x) + sin^2(x) = 1

then:

f'(x) = \frac{Cos(x)- 1}{(1 - Cos(x))^2} = - \frac{(1 - Cos(x))}{(1 - Cos(x))^2} = \frac{-1}{1 - Cos(x)}

In a right triangle, the measure of one acute angle is 26°. What is the measure of the other acute angle?
Makovka662 [10]
The sum of the angles of a triangle ALWAYS sum up to 180 degrees.  So to find the other angle, you would take 180, subtract 90, and then subtract 26, to get 64.
The measure of the 3rd angle equals 64.

This is a standard deviation contest. You must choose four numbers from the whole numbers 0 to 10 , with repeats allowed. (a) Ch
irina [24]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following instructions :

Choose 4 numbers from the whole numbers 0 - 10

Note : Repetition is allowed

Choose 4 numbers with the smallest possible standard deviation.

The smallest possible value of standard deviation obtainable is 0;

Hence in other to obtain a standard deviation value of 0, then;

The mean squared deviation value must be zero (0)

Σ(X - mean)^2 = 0

To achieve this, the values of X and the mean must be the same.

Hence all 4 numbers (X) must be the same in other to have a mean value which is equal to X

For instance :

If X = 3, 3, 3, 3 (since Repetition is allowed)

Man value = (3+ 3+ 3+ 3) / 4 = 12 / 4 = 3

Σ(3 - 3)² = 0 for all values of x

√Σ(x - mean)² / n = 0 ; if all values of x are the Same

n = Number of observations

A possible list of values is (3,3,3,3)
