A straight rod has one end at the origin and the other end at the point (l,0) and a linear density given by λ=ax2, where a is a

known constant and x is the x coordinate. since this wire is not uniform, you will have to use integrtation to solve this part. use m=∫l0dm to find the total mass m. find xcm for this rod. express your answer in terms of one or both of a and l.

It is given that a straight rod has one end at the origin (that is (0,0)) and the other end at the point (L,0) and a linear density given  by\lambda=ax^2, where a is a known constant and x is the x coordinate.

Therefore, the infinitesimal mass is given as:

dm=\lambda \times dx=\lambda dx

Therefore, the total mass will be the integration of the above equation as:

\int\,dm= \int\limits^L_0 {ax^2} \, dx

Therefore, m=a\int\limits^L_0 {x^2} \, dx=a[\frac{x^3}{3}]_{0}^{L}=\frac{a}{3}[L^3-0]= \frac{aL^3}{3}

<u>Now, we can find the center of mass</u>, x_{cm} of the rod as:

x_{cm}=\frac{1}{m} \int xdm

x_{cm}=\frac{1}{m}\int_{0}^{L}x\times \lambda dx =\int_{0}^{L}x\times ax^2 dx=\int_{0}^{L}ax^3 dx

Now, we have

x_{cm}=\frac{1}{\frac{aL^3}{3}}\int_{0}^{L}ax^3dx=\frac{3}{aL^3}\times [\frac{ax^4}{4}]_{0}^{L}

Therefore, the center of mass, x_{cm} is at:

\frac{3}{aL^3}\times [\frac{ax^4}{4}]_{0}^{L}=\frac{3}{aL^3}\times \frac{aL^4}{4}=\frac{3}{4}L

Which of the following inequality should be graphed with a dashed line? Select all that apply.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

  B, D

Step-by-step explanation:

Any inequality that does not include the "or equal to" case will be graphed with a dashed line.

<h3>Application</h3>

The "or equal to" case is included when the inequality symbol is one of ≤ or ≥. When symbols > or < are used, the boundary line of the solution space is dashed (or the end point on the number line is an open circle).

The inequalities that will be graphed with a dashed line are ...

  • 2x -4y < 12 . . . . choice B
  • x +7 > -1 . . . . . . .choice D

Is sin(x) even or odd ? prove with examples ?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

\text{sin}(x) is an odd function.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to prove whether \text{sin}(x) is even or odd.

We know that a function f(x) is even if f(x)=f(-x) and a function f(x) is odd, when f(-x)=-f(x).

We also know that an even function is symmetric with respect to y-axis and an odd function is symmetric about the origin.

Upon looking at our attachment, we can see that \text{sin}(x) is symmetric with respect to origin, therefore, \text{sin}(x) is an odd function.
