Answer: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The slope of a line is \dfrac{1}{2}.

We know that the product of two perpendicular lines is -1.

Let m be the slope of  line that is perpendicular to given line.

Then,we have :-

m\times\dfrac{1}{2}=-1\\\\\Rightarrow\ m=-2

Hence, the slope of a line that is perpendicular to this line =-2

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. So if 1 slope has a slope of 1/2, then its perpendicular line has a slope of -2/1 or just -2

What is the approximate area of a circle with a radius of 13cm? A.40.8cm² B.530.7cm² C.784cm² D.2461.8cm²
Gnesinka [82]
It would be B (530.7) because if you do 3.14 x 13 x 13 (Or to the second power) Then you get 530.66, the round to the nearest tenths

Derive the equation of motion of the spring-mass system given below. Please show and MARK your derivation step by step. Missing
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Ö + θ ( (k/m) + (g/l)) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the FBD attached:

Apply Newtons 2 nd Law in tangential direction:

Sum ( Ft ) = m*a

Sum of all tangential forces is:

m*g*sin(θ) + k*l*sin(θ)*cos(θ) = - m*l*Ö

Using small angle approximations:

sin (θ) = θ

cos (θ) = 1

Ö = angular acceleration.

m*g*θ + k*l*θ = -m*l*Ö

Ö + θ ( (k/m) + (g/l)) = 0
