One factor of x^3-3x^2-4x+12 is x+2. find the remaining factors

1 answer:

6 0

Dividing x^3 - 3x^2 - 4x + 12 by x + 2 gives

x^2 -5x + 6

= (x - 3)(x - 2)

so remaining factors are x - 3 and x - 2 answer

oee [108]

Answer:

D) The ball exerts a force on the wall and the wall exerts a force back.

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on another object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A"

In this problem, we can identify (for instance) object A with tha ball and object B with the wall. Therefore, if we apply Newton's third law, we get:

The ball (object A) exerts a force on the wall (object B), therefore the wall (object B) exerts an equal and opposite force on the ball (object A). So, option D is the correct one.

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation.

Explanation:

Given that two porters are available to carry a long timber wood.out of them one is weak. how do you make less load to the weak one?

We can make the weak one to carry less load through two different ways or means.

First, if we can locate the centre of gravity and centre of mass of the long timbre wood, the week one can carry the other end away from the center of gravity and centre of mass.

Second, the strong porter can carry the long timbre wood almost to the fulcrum and allow the weak one to support at the other end. By doing this, the weak one will only carry light portion of the load.

Thoughts about Genetically Modified Crops

Alex787 [66]

I think that GMOs, also known as genetically modified crops or organisms, can be used in good and bad ways. They can provide crops to survive longer, and produce a bigger portion. However, on the other side of that, it is claimed that it creates a large amount of greenhouse gas emissions, which can turn into climate change.

a man drags a 8.10 kg bag of mulch at a constant speed, applying a 29.5 N at 38°. what is the coefficient of friction?

lesantik [10]

Answer:

The coefficient of friction is 0.38.

Explanation:

The free body diagram is drawn below.

Let $f$ be frictional force acting in the backward direction as shown. Let the coefficient of friction be $\mu$ . Let $N$ be the normal reaction force acting on the bag.

Given:

Mass of the bag is, $m=8.10\textrm{ kg}$

Force acting at $\theta = 38$ ° is $F= 29.5\textrm{ N}$

Acceleration due to gravity is, $g=9.8\textrm{ }m/s^{2}$

The force F can be resolved into its components as $F_{x}=F \cos \theta$ and $F_{y}=F \sin \theta$

Therefore,

$F_{x}=29.5\cos(38)=23.25\textrm{ N}\\F_{y}=29.5\sin(38)=18.16\textrm{ N}$

Now, as there is no acceleration in vertical direction, therefore,

Sum of upward forces = Sum of downward forces

$N+F_{y}=mg\\N=mg-F_{y}=8.10\times 9.8-18.16\\N=79.38-18.16=61.22\textrm{ N}$

Now, as the bag is moving at a constant speed, so acceleration in the horizontal direction is also zero as acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

Therefore, backward force = forward force.

$f=F_{x}\\f=23.25\textrm{ N}$

Now, frictional force is given as:

$f=\mu N\\\mu = \frac{f}{N}=\frac{23.25}{61.22}=0.38$

Therefore, the coefficient of friction is 0.38.
