When the car is moving, it has Kinetic Energy. As soon as the car entercount with the spring, its Kinetic Energy will transfer to Elastic Potential Energy. 

<span>KE = EPE </span>
<span>1/2mv^2 = 1/2kx^2 </span>

<span>change the speed into m/s </span>
<span>50 km/hr = 13.9 m/s </span>

<span>1/2(1200)(13.9)^2 = 1/2k(2.2)^2 </span>

<span>now you do the math to solve for k.
k= 115926/2.42
K= 47903.30</span>

The family of solutions to the differential equation y ′ = −4xy3 is y = 1 √ C + 4x2 . Find the solution that satisfies the initi
slega [8]

Answer:

The correct option is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is given as

y(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{C+4x^2}}

Now for the initial condition the value of C is calculated as

y(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{C+4x^2}}\\y(-2)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{C+4(-2)^2}}\\4=\frac{1}{\sqrt{C+4(4)}}\\4=\frac{1}{\sqrt{C+16}}\\16=\frac{1}{C+16}\\C+16=\frac{1}{16}\\C=\frac{1}{16}-16

So the solution is given as

y(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{C+4x^2}}\\y(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\frac{1}{16}-16+4x^2}}

Simplifying the equation as

y(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\frac{1}{16}-16+4x^2}}\\y(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\frac{1-256+64x^2}{16}}}\\y(x)=\frac{\sqrt{16}}{\sqrt{{1-256+64x^2}}}\\y(x)=\frac{4}{\sqrt{{1+64(x^2-4)}}}

So the correct option is 4

IRISSAK [1]
The contribution of overhead as percentage of sales will be found as follows:
Overheads=134000+13550+27800=$175350
Sales=$191000
thus the percentage of overheads will be:
overheads/sales
=175350/191000
=0.91806
=91.806%
