Answer:
99
Explanation:
First strike=25 in
Second strike=4/5*25=20 in
Third strike=4/5*20=16 in
Fourth strike=4/5*16=12.8 in
Fifth strike=4/5*12.8=10.24 in
sixth strike=4/5*10.24=8.192 in
seventh strike=4/5*8.192=6.5536 in
Total=(25+20+16+12.8+10.24+8.192+6.5536) in=98.7856 in
Taking this as a geometric series
where a is initial value taken as 25 for this case and r is rate taken as 4/5 or 0.8 in our case
To the nearest inches, sum is 99 in
Answer:
c.) 36E
Explanation:
The magnitude of the electric field is given by the expression
(1)
where k is the Coulomb's constant, q is the charge that generates the field, and d is the distance from the charge.
In this problem, we have that the magnitude of the field at a distance d is 4E, so we can rewrite the previous equation as
Now we want to determine the electric field at a distance of away. Substituting into (1), we find
(2)
We also know that
(3)
So combining (2) with (3), we find a relationship between the original field and the new field:
