Determine the gradient and the co-ordinates of the x and y intercept of line whose equation is 2y + 3x = 1​

Physics
1 answer:
Savatey [412]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The x - intercept is 1/3

The y - intercept is 1/2

The gradient is -3/2

Explanation:

To find the x - intercept of the equation 2y + 3x = 1, we find the value of x when y = 0. So,

2y + 3x = 1

2(0) + 3x = 1

0 + 3x = 1

3x = 1

x = 1/3

So, the x - intercept is 1/3

To find the y - intercept of the equation 2y + 3x = 1, we find the value of y when x = 0. So,

2y + 3x = 1

2y + 3(0) = 1

2y + 0 = 1

2y = 1

y = 1/2

So, the y - intercept is 1/2

To find the gradient of the equation 2y + 3x = 1, we re-write it in gradient intercept form by making y subject of the formula.

So, 2y + 3x = 1

2y = -3x + 1

y = -3x/2 + 1/2

The coefficient of x which equals -3/2 is the gradient.

The gradient is -3/2

A slender, uniform metal rod of mass M and length lis pivoted without friction about an axis through its midpoint andperpendicul
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of the metal rod pivoted in the middle

= M l² / 12

If the spring is compressed by small distance x twisting the rod by angle θ

restoring force by spring

= k x

moment of torque  about axis

= k x l /2

= k θ( l /2 )²     ( x / .5 l = θ )

=

moment of torque = moment of inertia of  rod  x angular acceleration

k θ( l /2 )²   = M l² / 12 d²θ/dt²

d²θ/dt² = 3 k/M  θ

acceleration =  ω² θ

ω² = 3 k/M

ω = √ 3 k / M

Why does the frequency of a wave increase as the wavelength decreases
olchik [2.2K]

Explanation:

We know that the number of complete waves formed in 1 sec time is frequency and the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs is wavelength. And we have the formula that

Velocity = wavelength * frequency

or, frequency = velocity / wavelength

Here we can see frequency is directly proportional to velocity and indirectly proportional to wavelength.

So as the wavelength increases frequency decreases and as the wavelength decreases frequency increases.

Effect of Solvent:
Naddik [55]

1. H2O- The water completely dissolved the salt.

Alcohol- The alcohol dissolved the salt slightly.

Glycerin-The salt has not dissolved at all.

2. Water

3. Like dissolve like basically works on the principle of polarity. It means the substances which possess similar chemical properties may dissolve in each other. For example, ethanol can be dissolved in water because both are polar in nature whereas non-polar molecules can be dissolved in non-polar solvents only.

4. Generally, a solute dissolves faster in a warmer solvent than it does in a cooler solvent because particles have more energy of movement. For example, if you add the same amount of sugar to a cup of hot tea and a cup of iced tea, the sugar will dissolve faster in the hot tea.

Suppose that a block of mass 2 kg is pulled to the right with a force of 10 N, and the friction force on the block is directed t
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The block has an acceleration of 3 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

By means of Newton's second law it can be determine the acceleration of the block.

\sum F_{r} = ma   (1)

Where \sum F_{r} represents the net force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

F_{x} + F{y} = ma  (2)

The forces present in x are F = 10 N and f = 4 N (the friction force):

F_{x} = 10 N - 4 N

Notice that f subtracts to F since it is at the opposite direction.

F_{x} = 6 N

The forces present in y balance each other:

F_{y} = 0

Therefore:

6 + 0 = ma  

6 N = (2kg)a  (3)

But 1 N = 1 Kg.m/s^{2} and writing (3) in terms of a it is get:

a = \frac{6 Kg.m/s^{2}}{2 Kg}  

a = 3 m/s^{2}

So the block has an acceleration of a = 3 m/s^{2}.
