Answer:

They are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem .

we will convert the equations in slope intercept form.

Slope intercept  form of equation is y = mx+c

where m is slope of line and c is y intercept.

________________________________

equation 1 is

2x+y = 4

=> y =4 - 2x or y = -2x + 4

comparing it with y = mx + c

m = -2  , c = 4

_________________________________________

equation 2 is y = one halfx + 4 ( one half is same as 1/2)

so equation is

y = x/2 +4

comparing it with y = mx + c

m = 1/2  , c = 4

_________________________________________

Now lets evaluate options

They are parallel.  wrong option

For lines to be parallel slope should be same.

But here slope are different -2 and 1/2 .

Thus lines are not parallel.

__________________________________________

They are perpendicular.  correct option

For lines to be perpendicular, product of slope should be equal to -1.

-2*1/2 = -1

we can see that product of slope should be equal to -1 .

Thus lines are  perpendicular

______________________________________

They are the same line.  wrong option

For lines to be same both slope and y intercept should  be same.

Y intercept is same but the slopes are different -2 and 1/2  .

Thus lines are not  the same line.

__________________________________________

They are not related.       wrong option

As we have found that the lines are perpendicular .

So this option is intuitively wrong

A lamina with constant density rho(x, y) = rho occupies the given region. Find the moments of inertia Ix and Iy and the radii of
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Ix = Iy = \frac{ρπR^{4} }{16}

Radius of gyration x = y =  \frac{R}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A lamina with constant density ρ(x, y) = ρ occupies the given region x2 + y2 ≤ a2 in the first quadrant.

Mass of disk = ρπR2

Moment of inertia about its perpendicular axis is \frac{MR^{2} }{2}. Moment of inertia of quarter disk about its perpendicular is \frac{MR^{2} }{8}.

Now using perpendicular axis theorem, Ix = Iy = \frac{MR^{2} }{16} = \frac{ρπR^{4} }{16}.

For Radius of gyration K, equate MK2 = MR2/16, K= R/4.
