A force of 7 pounds is required to hold a spring stretched 0.4 feet beyond its natural length. How much work (in foot-pounds) is

done in stretching the spring from its natural length to 0.7 feet beyond its natural length?

Answer:

W = 8.575 foot-pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for work is:  W = F*d

where F is force applied and d distance of the movement

from problem statement we have

d = 0,7 ft

We also know that the spring was stretched 0,4 ft when a force of 7 pounds was applied therefore

K the constant of the spring is

F = K*s      

k = F/s     ⇒   k = 7/0.4         ⇒ k = 17.5  pounds/feet

Now to move from original condition of the spring up to 0,7 feet we need a force of

F = k*s       ⇒  F = 17,5 pounds/feet * 0.7 feet     ⇒ F = 12.25 pounds

And finally the work

W = 12.25 * 0.7   = 8.575 foot-pounds

W = 8.575 foot-pounds

Which explanation can be used to derive the formula for the circumference of a circle?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: The answer is the first explanation.


Step-by-step explanation:  We are given five different options and we are to select which explanation is correct to derive the formula for a circumference of a circle.

Let 'C' be the circumference and 'd' be the diameter of a circle. Now, we will write the ratio of the circumference to the diameter as

\dfrac{\textup{C}}{\textup{d}}.

Also, we know that

\dfrac{\textup{C}}{\textup{d}}=\pi.

And diameter of a circle is twice the radius, so

d=2r.

Therefore,

\dfrac{\textup{C}}{2\textup{r}}=\pi\\\\\Rightarrow \textup{C}=2\pi \textup{r}.

This is the formula for the circumference of a circle. Since this explanation matches exactly with the first option, so the correct option is

(a). Find the relationship between the circumference and the diameter by dividing the length of the circumference and length of the diameter. Use this quotient to set up an equation to showing the ratio of the circumference over the diameter equals to π . Then rearrange the equation to solve for the circumference. Substitute 2 times the radius for the diameter.

Which form most quickly reveals the vertex?
lana [24]

Answer:

first option

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

m(x) = - 2 (x - 6)² + 18 ← is in vertex form

with vertex = (6, 18 )

Peter selects a sock from his drawer. The sock is black. There are 4 white socks, 7 blue socks, and 12 black socks left in the d
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

5/12

7/12

125/36 = 3,47%

50/11 = 4,54%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability a black sock is selected when a person chooses 1 sock = 5/12

Probability a white or brown sock is selected when a person chooses 1 sock =

7/12

Probability  a person chooses 3 socks and selects a white first, a black second, and a brown last if the socks are replace = (4/12 * 5/12 * 3/12)*100 =125/36 = 3,47%

Pobability  a person chooses 3 socks and selects a white first, a black second, and a brown last if the socks are NOT replace = (4/12 * 5/11 * 3/ 10)*100 = 50/11 = 4,54%
