Answer:

a) dm/dt = 0.2m

b) ln(m) = 0.2t + A

c) ln(m) = 0.2t + ln(20) - 0.6

d) 11 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

a) dm/dt = 0.2m

b) dm/m = 0.2dt

ln(m) = 0.2t + A

c) At t = 3, dm/dt = 4

dm/dt = 0.2m

4 = 0.2m

m = 4/0.2 = 20

So, when t = 3, m = 20

ln(20) =0.2(3) + A

A = ln(20) - 0.6

ln(m) = 0.2t + ln(20) - 0.6

d) find m when t=0

ln(m) = 0.2(0) + ln(20) - 0.6

ln(m) = ln(20) - 0.6

ln(m) = 2.3957322736

m = e^2.3957322736

m = 10.9762327224

m = 11

What is the thirty-second term of the arithmetic sequence -12, -7, -2, 3, ... ? Show your work.
anzhelika [568]

The thirty-second term is 143

Further explanation:

As it is already given that the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence

We have to find the common difference first

So,

a_1=-12\\a_2=-7\\a_3=-2\\a_4=3

d=a_2-a_1=-7-(-12)=-7+12=5\\a_3-a_2=-2-(-7)=-2+7=5

The common difference is 5.

And first term is -12

The explicit formula for arithmetic sequence is:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\Here,\\a_n\ is\ nth\ term\\a_1\ is\ first\ term\\d\ is\ common\ difference

Putting the values in the formula

a_n=-12+(n-1)(5)\\a_n=-12+5n-5\\a_n=-17+5n

Putting n=32 in explicit formula

a_{32}=-17+5(32)\\=-17+160\\=143

The thirty-second term is 143

What is (2+y)³ written out? 8 + 12y + 6y² + y³ 6 + 8y + 4y² + y³
AveGali [126]
\boxed{(2+y)^3-cube\ the\ sum\ of\ the\ numbers\ 2\ and\ y}

Use:\ (a+b)^3=(a+b)(a+b)(a+b)=a^3+3a^2b+3ab^2+b^3\\----------------------------\\(2+y)^3=2^3+3\cdot2^2\cdot y+3\cdot2\cdot y^2+y^3=8+3\cdot4y+6y^2+y^3\\\\=8+12y+6y^2+y^3\\========================================

8+12y+6y^2+6y^3+8y+4y^2+y^3\\=8+(12y+8y)+(6y^2+4y^2)+(6y^3+y^3)\\=8+20y+10y^2+7y^3

find the flux of the constant vector field v→=3i→ 2j→−5k→ through a square plate of area 25 in the xz-plane oriented in the posi
Readme [11.4K]

The flux across a surface is an indicator of the rate at which fluid is flowing through it when there is a fluid flowing in three dimensions and a surface positioned inside that space.

<h3>What is Electric Flux?</h3>
  • A feature of an electric field is electric flux. One way to conceptualize it is as the quantity of forces interacting in a specific space.
  • According to conventional wisdom, electric field lines begin with positive electric charges and conclude with negative charges.
  • A closed surface's field lines are seen as negative when they are directed into it, and as positive when they are directed out of it.
  • Every field line that is directed into a closed surface continues through the interior and is often directed outward somewhere else on the surface if there is no net charge present within the surface.
  • The net, or total, electric flux is zero because the size of the negative and positive fluxes are just about equal.
  • A closed surface that contains a net charge will have a total flux that is proportional to the enclosed charge, positive if it is positive and negative if it is negative.
