Answer:
C) 40 N/m
Explanation:
If we ASSUME that the spring is un-stretched at the zero cm position
k = F/Δx = 10/0.25 = 40 N/m
We can approach this in another way.
We know that sin(∅) = height / hypotenuse.
Thus, for x, height is 1 and hypotenuse is 3. Using Pythagoras theorem,
3² = 1² + b²
b = √8
cos(x) = b/hypotenuse
cos(x) = √8 / 3
Now, lets consider y:
sec(y) = 1 / cos(y) = 1 / base / hypotenuse = hypotenuse / base
The hypotenuse is 25 and the base is 24. We again apply Pythagoras theorem to find the third side, which works out to be:
height = 7
sin(y) = height / hypotenuse
sin(y) = 7/25
Now, sin(x + y) =
sin(x)cos(y) + sin(y)cos(x)
= (1/3)(24/25) + (√8 / 3)(7/25)
= 8/25 + 7√8/75
= (24 + 14√2) / 75
Sex cells have half as many chromosomes as other cells. Sex cells are therefore called haploid.
D. descriptive because it makes more sense to me then all the others.
