A suspension bridge with weight uniformly distributed along its length has twin towers that extend 75 meters above the road surf

ace and are 400 meters apart. The cables are parabolic in shape and are suspended from the tops of the towers. The cables touch the road surface at the center of the bridge. Find the height of the cables at a point 100 meters from the center.

Answer:

Let take the center of bridge as our origin (0,0). Parabola having vertex at origin is represented by y=a.x^2

At the right far end or +ive x-axis side we've x=200 and y=75 , so a=75/(200^2)=0.001875

Y

Parabola equation y=0.001875*x^2

Height of cable from 100m from centre. Y=? ,X=100m

Y=0.001875*(100^2)

Y=18.75 m

Height of ropes at 100m from the center of bridge.

True or False:
Naya [18.7K]

we can check if a given sequence is geometric or not by checking the terms present in it ,

Let us find ratio of each term with it's previous term

if that ratio comes out same for every two consecutive terms then it is a geometric sequence , otherwise it is not geometric sequence .

Let us work on first one : given is : -1,1,-1,1.............

second term/ first term = 1/-1 = -1

third term/ second term = -1/1 = -1

fourth term / third term = 1/-1 = -1

fifth term/ fourth term = -1/1 = -1

because that ratio is same so it is a geometric sequence .

* let us now work with second sequence .

eE

second term/ first term = -6/-2 = 3

third term/ second term = -18/ -6 = 3

fourth term / third term = -54 / -18 = 3

hence this is also geometric sequence .

Answer : both are geometric sequence .

Which of the following represents the correct expansion of (x + 2)^5?
otez555 [7]
(x + 2)^5 = (x + 2) (x + 2) (x + 2)(x + 2)(x + 2) =
(x2 + 4x + 4)(x2+4x+4)(x+2) = ( x4 + 4x3 + 4x2 + 4x3 + 16x2 + 16x + 4x2 +16x + 16)(x+2) = ( x4 + 8x3 + 24x2 + 32x + 16)(x+2) = ( x5 + 8x4 + 24x3 + 32x2 + 16x + 2x4 + 16x3 + 48x2 + 64x + 32) =
x5 + 10x4 + 40x3 + 80x2 + 80x + 32
