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

While taking the stairs it takes you 10 seconds to reach the top. The next time you take the same stairs, it takes you 5 seconds
Ksju [112]

Answer:

  P₂ = 2 P₁

we conclude that in the second time the power used is double that in the first rise

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked the power to climb the stairs, if we assume that we go up with constant speed, we use an energy equal to the potential energy due to the difference in height of the stairs, as this height is constant the potential energy does not change and therefore therefore the energy used by us does not change either.

Now we can analyze the required power,

         P = W / t

From the analysis of the previous paragraph the work is equal to the energy used, according to the work energy theorem,

therefore the first time the power is

           P₁ = E / 10

           P₁ = 0.1 E

for the second time the power is

          P₂ = E / 5

          P₂ = 0.2 E

we see that the power in the second case is

         P₂ = 2 P₁

Therefore, we conclude that in the second time the power used is double that in the first rise.

A 9500 kg boxcar traveling at 14 m/s strikes a stationary second car. The two stick together and move off with a speed of 6.0 m/
jasenka [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of the second car is 12666.7 kg

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass of car, we use the equation of law of conservation of momentum, which is:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v

where,

m_1 = mass of car 1 = 9500 kg

u_1 = Initial velocity of car 1 = 14 m/s

m_2 = mass of car 2 = ? kg

u_2 = Initial velocity of car 2 = 0 m/s

v = Final velocity = 6.0 m/s

Putting values in above equation, we get:

(9500\times 14)+(m_2\times 0)=(9500+m_2)6.0\\\\m_2=\frac{9500\times 14}{6}-9500=12666.7kg

Hence, the mass of the second car is 12666.7 kg
