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>

Greg has decreased his running time by 1/10 minute each of the last six weeks. Write an expression to represent the total change
Nastasia [14]

x is your starting running time. 1/10 of a minute is 6 seconds, so you can do x - 6(6). 6 times 6 = 36, so your answer is x - 36 seconds. 36 seconds.

Which rational exponent represents a square root?<br> A. 1 / 2<br> B. 3/2<br> C. 1/3<br> D. 1/4
Fofino [41]

Answer:

1/2 rational exponent represents a square root.

Therefore, option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that raising to the one-half power i.e. \frac{1}{2} is the same

as taking the square root.

  • so x^{\frac{1}{2}} is the same as the square root of x.

For example, taking the square root of 4 will determine:

4^{\frac{1}{2}}

\mathrm{Factor\:the\:number:\:}\:4=2^2

4^{\frac{1}{2}}=\left(2^2\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}

\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \left(a^b\right)^c=a^{bc},\:\quad \:a\ge 0

\left(2^2\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}=2^{2\cdot \frac{1}{2}}

so the expression becomes

4^{\frac{1}{2}}=2^{2\cdot \:\frac{1}{2}}

    =2^1

    =2         ∵ \mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \:a^1=a

so, 1/2 rational exponent represents a square root.

Therefore, option A is correct.

how to find domain and range in a graph and will give the bainliest to whoever explains to me on how to do it.
AveGali [126]
To find the domain of a graph observe the intervals of x that the line touches, and make an inequality of it. Same for the range but it's for the intervals of y. If the graph goes forever, then include "infinity" on the inequality
