When a constant force is applied to an object, the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. When a certain con

stant force acts upon an object
with mass 4 kg, the acceleration of the object is 5 m/s. When the same force acts upon another object, its acceleration is 2 m/s.. What is the mass of this
object?

Answer: The mass of the object is 10 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the force F applied to an object with mass m is directly proportional to its acceleration a:

F=ma (1)

If we isolate a:

a=\frac{F}{m} (2) This means the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass

Now, we are given the following data to calculate a constant force using (1):

m_{1}=4 kg

a_{1}=5 m/s^{2}

F=m_{1}a_{1} (3)

F=(4 kg)(5 m/s^{2) (4)

F=20 N (5)

If we apply this same force calulated in (4) in another object with an acceleration of a_{2}=2 m/s^{2}, its mass m_{2} will be:

F=m_{2}a_{2} (6)

20 N=m_{2}2 m/s^{2} (7)

Finding  m_{2}:

m_{2}=10 kg This is the mass of the object

How many ways can a dance instructor send 4 of her 11 students to a summer dance program?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

d) 330

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways can a dance instructor send 4 of her 11 students to summer dance program is  C(11 , 4)

That is 11_{C_{4} } ways

by using formula n_{C_{r} } = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}

now simplification

11_{C_{4} } = \frac{11!}{(11-4)!4!}

      = \frac{11X10X9X8X7!}{(7!)4X3X2X1}

after cancelling 7! and on simplification

   = \frac{11X10X9X8}{4X3X2X1}

after cancellation we get 330 ways

The number of ways can a dance instructor send 4 of her 11 students to summer dance program is 330

Solve the equation. |x + 5| = 9 {–4, 14} {–14, 4} {4, 14} {–14, –4}
inna [77]

Answer:

{-14, 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

the absolute value function only makes sure that the result always has a positive sign.

so, (x + 5) must be either +9 or -9 to make the original equation true. the absolute value would turn both into +9.

so,

x + 5 = 9

x = 4

and

x + 5 = -9

x = -14

that gives us the correct set of solutions as indicated above.
