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

Check out if I'm right<br> Plz explain..if u have a different answer
Ronch [10]

Answer:

A C

Step-by-step explanation:

A

A is true.The numerator does have 3 terms. The constant term (the 3 at the end) is still a term and counts as a term.

B

A constant term does not count as a coefficient so b is not right, just as you have indicated by not underlining it.

C

C is true. In fact, 2 is the leading coefficent of the denominator.

D

Either A is true or D is, but I don't think they both are. You need a modifier to claim that D is true. If the statement said the numerator has <em>at least </em>2 terms then both A and D would be true. Without the at least, you have to pick one and the one I choose is A

E

This is the tough one. Very sticky. You would think it is true, but it isn't. A constant term is not a coefficient. Coefficients only count when they are with "x"s.

15 cm<br> 16.6 cm<br> area<br> cm2
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

357.1573 (If you don't round)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find area of a rectangle is to multiply length by width, which in this situation would be 15 by 16.6, which is equal to 249. Next, we need to add this to the area of the semicircle. The area of a semicircle is equal to 1/2 * pi * radius^2 (Because a semicircle is half a circle and a circle's area is pi * radius^2). The radius is equal to half the diameter, which in this case is 16.6. 16.6/2 = 8.3, so the radius is 8.3. If we plug this into the equation, we get that 108.1573 is the area of the circle (If you use 3.14 as pi). 108.1573 + 249 is equal to 357.1573.
