Answer:

512

Explanation:

Given sequence:

1/8, 1/2, 2, ...

Unknown:

The 7th term of the geometric sequence = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply the formula below;

Sₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

n is the nth term

r = $\frac{\frac{1}{2} }{\frac{1}{8} }$ = $\frac{1}{2} x 8$ = 4

Input the parameters and solve;

Sₙ = $\frac{1}{8}$ x 4⁷⁻¹

Sₙ = $\frac{1}{8}$ x 4⁶ = 512

How much power does it take to lift 70.0 N to 5.0 m high in 5.00 s?

lesantik [10]

Answer:

Power = 70 W

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 70 N

Height, h = 5 m

Time, t = 5 s

We need to find the power of the object. We know that,

Power = work done/time

Put all the values,

$P=\dfrac{Fd}{t}\\\\P=\dfrac{70\times 5}{5}\\\\P=70\ W$

So, the required power is 70 W.

Ron fills a beaker with glycerin (n = 1.473) to a depth of 5.0 cm. if he looks straight down through the glycerin surface, he wi

Tju [1.3M]

By law of refraction we know that image position and object positions are related to each other by following relation

$\frac{\mu_1}{h_o} = \frac{\mu_2}{h_i}$

here we know that

$\mu_1 = 1.473$

$h_o = 5 cm$

$\mu_2 = 1$

now by above formula

$\frac{1.473}{5} = \frac{1}{h_i}$

$h_i = 3.39 cm$

so apparent depth of the bottom is seen by the observer as h = 3.39 cm

You need a 450 microgram sample of gold, but you only have a mass balance that measures in decigrams. Convert the amount of gold

sveta [45]

The amount of gold in decigrams if 450 micrograms is needed is 4.5 × 10-³ decigrams.

<h3>How to convert micrograms to decigrams?</h3>

According to this question, 450 micrograms of a sample of gold is needed but we only have a mass balance that measures in decigrams.

This means that we are to convert the amount of gold you need to decigrams by comparing the exponents.

The conversion factor of micrograms to decigrams is as follows:

1 micrograms = 1 × 10-⁵ decigrams

This means 450 micrograms is equivalent to 450 × 1 × 10-⁵ = 4.5 × 10-³ decigrams

Therefore, the amount of gold in decigrams if 450 micrograms is needed is 4.5 × 10-³ decigrams.
