For a moving object, the force acting on the object varies directly with the object's acceleration. When a force of 10 N acts on

a certain object, the acceleration of the object is 5 /ms2 . If the acceleration of the object becomes 6 /ms2 , what is the force

Answer:

The force is 12 N

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Direct variation is a relationship between two variables that can

 be expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a

 constant times the other

- If y ∝ x , then y = kx , where k is the constant of variation

* Lets solve the problem

- The force acting on the object varies directly with the object's

  acceleration

∵ The force is F in newtons and a is the acceleration is m/s²

∴ F ∝ a

∴ F = ka

- To find k substitute F and a by the initial values of them

∵ A force of 10 N acts on a certain object, the acceleration of the

  object is 5 m/s²

∵ F = 10 N when a = 5 m/s²

∵ F = ka

∴ 10 = k(5)

- Divide both sides by 5

∴ K = 2

- Substitute the value of k in the equation

∴ F = 2a

- Lets find the force when the acceleration is 6 m/s²

∵ a = 6 m/s²

∴ F = 2(6) = 12

* The force is 12 N

To go on the class trip, chang needs at least $125. he has saved $45, and he makes $7 an hour at his job. what is the minimum nu
Murljashka [212]
The total amount that Chang will received from his wages is the product of his hourly wage times the number of hours he has worked (n). His total savings should not be less than $125. The equation that best describes the situation is, 
                                    45 + 7n ≥ 125
Solving for n in the inequality gives an answer of n≥11.42 hours. Thus, he needs to work for at least 12 hours.

Answer:

36 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h and p represent the number of highlighters and the number of pencils, respectively.

Then h + p = 45, and h = 45 - p.

Tom paid a total of $30 for these supplies, with ($2/highligher)(h) + ($0.333/pencil) adding up to that amount.

substituting 45 - p for h in 2h + 0.333p = 30, we get:

2(45 - p) + 0.333p = 30, or

90 - 2p + 0.333p = 30

Combine the constants:  60 = 2p - 0.333p, or 60 = 1.667p

Then p = 60/1.667 = 35.9928, or 36.

Tom bought 36 pencils for $12, and 45-36, or 9, highlighters for $18, for a total purchase of $30.  This shows that these calculations are correct.
