A comet travels at an average speed of 273,000 km/h.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer: 52,416,000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

If a comet travels 273,000 km/hr

1) Multiply 273,000 km by 24 hours to find how far the comet travels in one day

2) multiply the answer from 1 by 8 to determine how far it travels in 8 days

1) $\frac{273,000 km}{hr}$ * $\frac{24 hr}{1 day}$ = $\frac{6,552,000km}{day}$ (hours cancel out)

2) $\frac{6,552,000km}{day}$ *8 day= 52,416,000 km in 8 days

The comet approximately travelled 52,416,000km from when it began to travel to when it reached Earth. Hope this helped :)

Answer:

(b) 36.56 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the total of the circumference of a 4 ft circle and two lengths that are 12 ft.

The circumference is given by ...

C = πd

C = (3.14)(4 ft) = 12.56 ft

Adding the 24 ft of straight sections, we find the total perimeter to be ...

P = 12 + 12 + 12.56 = 36.56 . . . feet

In the rho.bus, m angle 1 =4y-2. Find the value of y.

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

y = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other, thus

∠1 = 90° and ∠1 = 4y - 2, so equating gives

4y - 2 = 90 ( add 2 to both sides )

4y = 92 ( divide both sides by 4 )

y = 23

Trouble finding arclength calc 2

kiruha [24]

Answer:

$S\approx1.1953$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the function:

$y=3-x^2$

And we want to find the arc-length from:

$0\leq x\leq \sqrt3/2$

By differentiating and substituting into the arc-length formula, we will acquire:

$\displaystyle S=\int\limits^\sqrt3/2}_0 {\sqrt{1+4x^2} \, dx$

To evaluate, we can use trigonometric substitution. First, notice that:

$\displaystyle S=\int\limits^\sqrt3/2}_0 {\sqrt{1+(2x)^2} \, dx$

Let's let y=2x. So:

$y=2x\\dy=2\,dx\\\frac{1}{2}\,dy=dx$

We also need to rewrite our bounds. So:

$y=2(\sqrt3/2)=\sqrt3\\y=2(0)=0$

So, substitute. Our integral is now:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{1}{2}\int\limits^\sqrt3}_0 {\sqrt{1+y^2} \, dy$

Let's multiply both sides by 2. So, our length S is:

$\displaystyle 2S=\int\limits^\sqrt3}_0 {\sqrt{1+y^2} \, dy$

Now, we can use trigonometric substitution.

Note that this is in the form a²+x². So, we will let:

$y=a\tan(\theta)$

Substitute 1 for a. So:

$y=\tan(\theta)$

Differentiate:

$y=\sec^2(\theta)\, d\theta$

Of course, we also need to change our bounds. So:

$\sqrt3=\tan(\theta), \theta=\pi/3\\0=\tan(\theta), \theta=0$

Substitute:

$\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {\sqrt{1+\tan^2(\theta)}\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta$

The expression within the square root is equivalent to (Pythagorean Identity):

$\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {\sqrt{\sec^2(\theta)}\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 (\sec(\theta))\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta$

Now, we have to evaluate this integral. To do this, we can use integration by parts. So, let's let u=sec(θ) and dv=sec²(θ). Therefore:

$u=\sec(\theta)\\du=\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)\, d\theta$

And:

$dv=\sec^2(\theta)\, d\theta\\v=\tan(\theta)$

Integration by parts:

$\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 (\sec(\theta))\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta=\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)-(\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {\tan^2(\theta)\sec(\theta)} \, d\theta)$

Again, let's using the Pythagorean Identity, we can rewrite tan²(θ) as:

$\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 (\sec(\theta))\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta=\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)-(\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {(\sec^2(\theta)-1)\sec(\theta)} \, d\theta)$

Distribute:

$\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 (\sec(\theta))\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta=\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)-(\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {(\sec^3(\theta)-\sec(\theta)} \, d\theta)$

Now, let's make the single integral into two integrals. So:

$\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 (\sec(\theta))\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta=\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)-(\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {\sec^3(\theta)\, d\theta-\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {\sec(\theta)}\, d\theta)$

Distribute the negative:

$\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 (\sec(\theta))\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta=\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)-\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {\sec^3(\theta)\, d\theta+\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {\sec(\theta)}\, d\theta$

Notice that the integral in the first equation and the second integral in the second equation is the same. In other words, we can add the second integral in the second equation to the integral in the first equation. So:

$\displaystyle 2S= 2\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 (\sec(\theta))\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta=\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)+\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {\sec(\theta)}\, d\theta$

Divide the second and third equation by 2. So: $\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 (\sec(\theta))\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta=\frac{1}{2}(\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)+\int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 {\sec(\theta)}\, d\theta)$

Now, evaluate the integral in the second equation. This is a common integral, so I won't integrate it here. Namely, it is:

$\displaystyle 2S= \int\limits^{\pi/3}_0 (\sec(\theta))\sec^2(\theta) \, d\theta=\frac{1}{2}(\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)+\ln(\tan(\theta)+\sec(\theta))$

Therefore, our arc length will be equivalent to:

$\displaystyle 2S=\frac{1}{2}(\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)+\ln(\tan(\theta)+\sec(\theta)|_{0}^{\pi/3}$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{1}{4}(\sec(\theta)\tan(\theta)+\ln(\tan(\theta)+\sec(\theta)|_{0}^{\pi/3}$

Evaluate:

$S=\frac{1}{4}((\sec(\pi/3)\tan(\pi/3)+\ln(\tan(\pi/3)+\sec(\pi/3))-(\sec(0)\tan(0)+\ln(\tan(0)+\sec(0))$

Evaluate:

$S=\frac{1}{4}((2\sqrt3+\ln(\sqrt3+2))-((1)(0)+\ln(0+1))$

Simplify:

$S=\frac{1}{4}(2\sqrt 3+\ln(\sqrt3+2)}$

Use a calculator:

$S\approx1.1953$

And we're done!
