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

If you doubled the radius of a sphere, how would the volume change? A. The volume would double. B. The volume would triple. C. T
Ronch [10]
The volume of a sphere, V = (4/3)(PI)(R^3) Let k = (4/3)(PI) Therefore, V = k (R^3) Let R’ = new radius = 2R V’ =k (R’^3) = k (2R)^3 = 8 k R^3 = 8 V The volume would be eight time the original volume.

Find integrate (1/(xsqrt(1+(lnx)^2)),1,e,x) ...?
prohojiy [21]
Note that x² + 2x + 3 = x² + x + 3 + x. So your integrand can be written as 

<span>(x² + x + 3 + x)/(x² + x + 3) = 1 + x/(x² + x + 3). </span>

<span>Next, complete the square. </span>

<span>x² + x + 3 = x² + x + 1/4 + 11/4 = (x + 1/2)² + (√(11)/2)² </span>

<span>Also, for the x in the numerator </span>

<span>x = x + 1/2 - 1/2. </span>

<span>So </span>

<span>(x² + 2x + 3)/(x² + x + 3) = 1 + (x + 1/2)/[(x + 1/2)² + (√(11)/2)²] - 1/2/[(x + 1/2)² + (√(11)/2)²]. </span>

<span>Integrate term by term to get </span>

<span>∫ (x² + 2x + 3)/(x² + x + 3) dx = x + (1/2) ln(x² + x + 3) - (1/√(11)) arctan(2(x + 1/2)/√(11)) + C </span>

<span>b) Use the fact that ln(x) = 2 ln√(x). Then put u = √(x), du = 1/[2√(x)] dx. </span>

<span>∫ ln(x)/√(x) dx = 4 ∫ ln u du = 4 u ln(u) - u + C = 4√(x) ln√(x) - √(x) + C </span>

<span>= 2 √(x) ln(x) - √(x) + C. </span>

<span>c) There are different approaches to this. One is to multiply and divide by e^x, then use u = e^x. </span>

<span>∫ 1/(e^(-x) + e^x) dx = ∫ e^x/(1 + e^(2x)) dx = ∫ du/(1 + u²) = arctan(u) + C </span>

<span>= arctan(e^x) + C.</span>

zmey [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

\because \:  ( {a}^{m} )^{n}  =  {a}^{m \times n}  \\  \\ \therefore ( {9}^{3} )^{3}  =  {9}^{3 \times 3}  =  {9}^{9}  \\
