What is 7.4 in it's simplest form?

Physics
1 answer:
Iteru [2.4K]3 years ago
4 0
Assuming that you mean to ask <em>. . . "What is 7.4 </em><u><em>as a fraction</em></u><em> in simplest form</em>?"

7.4 = 7 and 4/10

4/10 can be reduced to 2/5

7 represents = (7*5)/5 = 35/5

so . .  7 + 4/10 = 35/5 + 2/5 = 37/5 (improper fraction in simplest form)
or
 . . . . 7 + 4/10 = 7 2/5 (mixed fraction in simplest form)

A 39-foot ladder is leaning against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder is being pulled away from the wall at the rate
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

The rate of change of the area when the bottom of the ladder (denoted by b) is at 36 ft. from the wall is the following:

\frac{dA}{dt}|_{b=36}=-571.2\, ft^2/s

Explanation:

The Area of the triangle is given by A=h\times b where h=\sqrt{l^2-b^2} (by using the Pythagoras' Theorem) and b is the length of the base of the triangle or the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the wall.

The area is then

A=\sqrt{l^2-b^2}b

The rate of change of the area is given by its time derivative

\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}\left(\sqrt{l^2-b^2}\cdot b\right)

\implies \frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}\left(\sqrt{l^2-b^2}\right)\cdot b+\frac{db}{dt}\cdot\sqrt{l^2-b^2}

\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\frac{d}{dt}(l^2-b^2)\cdot b+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot \frac{db}{dt} Product rule

\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot 2\cdot b^2\cdot \frac{db}{dt}+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot \frac{db}{dt} Chain rule

\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot b^2\cdot \frac{db}{dt}+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot \frac{db}{dt}

\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{db}{dt}\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot b^2+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\right)

In here we can identify b=36\, ft, l=39 and \frac{db}{dt}=8\,ft/s.

The result is then

\frac{dA}{dt}=8\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{39^2-36^2}}\cdot 36^2+\sqrt{39^2-36^2}}\right)=-571.2\, ft^2/s

An automobile engineer found that the impact of a truck colliding at 14 km/h with a concrete pillar caused the bumper to indent
BlackZzzverrR [31]
Hello
Here we must use the equation of motion 
v^2 = u^2 + 2as; where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is the acceleratoin and is the distance travelled.
We select this one because the time of collision is unknown to us.
We know the truck stopped so its final velocity is 0; thus v = 0.
Converting the initial velocity to SI units, we get 3.89 m/s.
The distance traveled, s, is 0.062 meters.
Inserting all of these values into the equation,
0 = (3.89)^2 + 2(a)(0.062)
and solving for a, we get a to be
-122.0 ms^(-2)
The negative sign indicates the acceleration is in the opposite direction to the initial motion, which means the truck decelerated. This is consistent with the given condition.

A. In your own words, define what a transverse wave is.
olasank [31]

Answer:

a) From definition a transverse wave is which one where the elements moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave. For example is a wave is moving from the left to the right the elements would be wibrating or moving upward or downward.

We have a lot examples for a transverse wave. For example water waves, strings on the musical instruments , light and radio waves.

b) We can identify a transverse wave if the particles are displaced perpendicular to the direction of the wave. Usually these types of wave occur in elastic solids. And we can identify it when we see a pattern perpendicular between the wave direction and the particles motion. In simple words we need to see that the wave is moving down and up.

Explanation:

Part a
