Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

Length. L = 12 m

Width, W = 16 m

Area, A = 12 x 16 = 192 m^2

Let the width of pavement be d.

The new length, L' = 12 + 2d

the new width, W' = 16 + 2d  

New Area, A' = L' x W' = (12 + 2d)(16 + 2d) = 192 + 56 d + 4d^2

Difference in area = A' - A

285 =  192 + 56 d + 4d^2 - 192

93 =  56 d + 4d^2

4d^2 + 56 d - 93 = 0

d = \frac{-56\pm \sqrt{56^{2}+4\times 4\times 93}}{8}

d=\frac{-56\pm 87.72}{8}\

d = 1.5 m

Thus, the width of the pavement is 1.5 m.

Answer:

R= 5.4 ohms

Explanation:

Given that

V= 9 V

Power ,P= 15 W

Lets take resistor resistance = R

We know that Power given as

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

V=Voltage

P=Power

R=Resistance

R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}

Now by putting the all the values in the above equation

R=\dfrac{9^2}{15}

R= 5.4 ohms

Therefore the resistance of the resister will be 5.4 ohms.

Let k be the spring constant. Then you have
188=k*21.8
k=188/21.8=8.62,
In the second part you use
m g= k x
x=m g/k= 38/8.62=4.4cm

4.4 cm is the answer

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

4.86 seconds

Explanation:

Velocity of projection, u = 14 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 20°

Formula for the time of flight

T=\frac{2uSin\theta }{g}

For earth

Te = (2 x 14 x Sin 20) / 9.8

Te = 0.98 s

For moon

g' = g/6 = 1.64 m/s^2

Tm = ( 2 x 14 x Sin 20) / 1.64

Tm = 5.84 seconds

Tm - Te = 5.84 - 0.98 = 4.86 s

So, it takes 4.86 s more time of flight on moon than the earth.
