A particle P, starting from rest at A, moves in a straight line ABCD. It accelerates uniformly at 5ms-2 from A to B. From B to C

it travels at constant velocity, and from C to D it slows down uniformly at 4ms-2, coming to rest at D. Given that AB=10m and that the total time P the particle is in motion is 20s, find the distance BC

First, we find the time spent accelerating:
s = ut + 1/2 at²; u = 0
10 = 1/2 5t²
t = 2 seconds
Velocity at point B:
v = u + at; u = 0, a = 5 m/s², t = 2 s
v = (5)(2) = 10 m/s

Now, the same velocity is at C so we find the time decelerating to 0 in CD
v = u + at, v = 0, u = 10 m/s, a = -4 m/s²
0 = 10 - 4t
t = 2.5 seconds
Total time = time(AB) + time(BC) + time(CD)
20 = 2 + time(BC) + 2.5
time(BC) = 15.5 seconds

Distance = velocity x time
BC = 10 x 15.5
= 155 m

Consider the graph of the line y = x – 4 and the point (−4, 2).
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

a. The slope  of a line parallel to the given line is 1

b. A point on the line parallel to the given line, passing through (−4, 2), is  (1,7)

c. The slope of the line perpendicular to the given line is -1

d. A point on the line perpendicular to the given line, passing through (−4, 2), is (3,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-intercept form  is:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

a. For the line y = x - 4

You can identify that:

m=1

 By definition, two lines are parallel if they have the same slope. Then, the  slope of a line parallel to the given line is:

m=1

b. The equation of the line in Point-slope form is:

y -y_1 = m(x - x_1)

Where m is the slope and (x_1,y_1)  is a point of the line.

Given the point (-4,2), substitute this point and the slope of the line into the equation:

 y -2 = (x +4)

Give a value to "x", substitute it into this equation and solve for "y":

For x=1 :

y -2 = (1 +4)

y= 5+2

y= 7

Then, you get the point (1,7)

c. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals, then the  slope of a line perpendicular to the given line is:

m=-\frac{1}{1}\\\\m=-1

d. Given the point (-4,2), substitute this point and the slope of the line into the equation:

 y -2 = -1(x +4)

 y -2 = -(x +4)

Give a value to "x", substitute it into this equation and solve for "y":

For x=3 :

y -2 = -(3 +4)

y= -7+2

y= -5

Then, you get the point (3,-5)

Give the largest interval over which the general solution is defined. (Think about the implications of any singular points. Ente
Leto [7]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

   No singular point due to the exponent in the solution

    The interval is   -\infty

b

   NONE

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     \frac{dy}{dx} =  9y

The generally solution is mathematically represented as

         \frac{dy }{dx}  =  9y

=>       \frac{dy}{y}  =  9dx

integrating both sides  

         \int\limits  {\frac{ dy}{y} } \,  = \int\limits  {9} \, dx

  =>   lny = 9x + c

 =>   y =  e^{9x +c }

 =>    y =  e^{9x} e^{c}

Here e^c  =  C

=>     y = C  e^{9x}

From the above equation we see that the domain for x has no singular point the interval is

       -\infty

Also there is no transient term in the general solution obtained because as  x \to \infty there no case where y \to 0
