3x - 4 > 4x - 8 simplify​

Physics
1 answer:
Anit [1.1K]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>x < 4</em>

Explanation:

<u>Inequalities</u>

The inequalities relate expressions using signs different from the equal sign, like "<" or "<" among others.

They can be treated as a normal equation but in case of directional relationals, care must be taken when multiplying or dividing by negative numbers.

The inequality given in the question is

3x - 4 > 4x - 8

Subtracting 3x in both sides

3x - 4 -3x > 4x - 8 -3x

Simplifying

-4 > x - 8

Adding 8

-4 + 8 > x - 8 + 8

Simplifying

4 > x

The solution comes by flipping both sides and the inequality sign

x < 4

How can a bulb be resistor?​
valkas [14]

Answer: The reason a light bulb glows is that electricity is forced through tungsten, which is a resistor. The energy is released as light and heat. A conductor is the opposite of a resistor. Electricity travels easily and efficiently through a conductor, with almost no other energy released as it passes.

A small metal ball with a mass of m = 62.0 g is attached to a string of length l = 1.85 m. It is held at an angle of θ = 48.5° w
notka56 [123]

The distance x will the ball land after flies off with a horizontal initial velocity  is 3.0635 m.

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

The mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy of an object at any instant of time.

M.E = KE +PE

A small metal ball with a mass of m = 62.0 g is attached to a string of length l = 1.85 m. It is held at an angle of θ = 48.5° with respect to the vertical.

The ball is then released. When the rope is vertical, the ball collides head-on and perfectly elastically with an identical ball originally at rest. This second ball flies off with a horizontal initial velocity from a height of h = 3.76 m, and then later it hits the ground.

The conservation of energy principle states that total mechanical energy remains conserved in all situations where there is no external force acting on the system.

Kinetic energy  = Potential energy

1/2 mv² =mgh₁

The velocity at the bottom, when the height h = 5m, is

v= √2gh₁...................(1)

The vertical height h₁ = l- lcosθ

h₁ = l- lcosθ

h₁ = 1.85 - 1.85cos48.5°

h₁ =0.6241 m

Putting the values in equation (1), we get

v = √2x 9.81 x0.6241

v = 3.499 m/s

The horizontal distance traveled is

x = vt

x = v x √2h/g

Plug the values, we get

x =  3.499 x √2x3.76 / 9.81

x = 3.0635 m

Thus, the horizontal distance ball travels is  3.0635 m.

Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. An Alaskan rescue plane drops a package of emergency rations to str
Vlad [161]

Answer:

(a) The package lands 682 meters horizontally ahead from the point the package was dropped from the plane

(b) The horizontal component = 39.0 m/s

The vertical component = 171.55 m/s

(c) The angle of impact is 77.19°

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Velocity of the plane, vₓ = 39.0 m/s

Height of the plane above the ground, h = 1.50 × 10² m = 1,500 m

(a) The time, t, before the package hits the ground when dropped from the plane is given by the relation;

h = u·t + 1/2×g×t²

Where:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

u = Initial vertical velocity = 0 m/s

Hence;

1500 = 0×t + 1/2 × 9.81 × t² = 4.905·t²

∴ t = √(1500/4.905) = 17.49 s

The horizontal distance the package travels before landing = 17.49 × 39 ≈ 682 m

The package lands 682 meters horizontally ahead from the point the package was dropped from the plane

(b) The vertical velocity, v_y, of the package just before landing is given by the relation;

v_y² = u² + 2·g·h

u = 0 m/s

∴ v_y² = 0 + 2×9.81×1500 = 29430 m²/s²

v_y = √29430  = 171.55 m/s

Hence the horizontal component = 39.0 m/s

The vertical component = 171.55 m/s

(c) The angle of impact, θ, is given as follows;

tan \theta = \dfrac{v_y}{v_x}  = \dfrac{171.55}{39.0 } = 4.4

∴ θ = tan⁻¹(4.4) = 77.19°.

A motorcycle starts from rest and has a constant acceleration. In a time interval t, it undergoes a displacement x and attains a
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

√(6ax)

Explanation:

Hi!

The question states that during a time t the motorcyle underwent a displacement x at constant acceleration a starting from rest, mathematically we can express it as:

x=(1/2)at^2

Then the we need to find the time t' for which the displacement is 3x

3x=(1/2)a(t')^2

Solving for t':

t'=√(6x/a)

Now, the velocity of the motorcycle as a function of time is:

v(t)=a*t

Evaluating at t=t'

v(t')=a*√(6x/a)=√(6*x*a)

Which is the final velocity

Have a nice day!
