Answer:

2.70J.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a variable force of 3x^{-2} pounds moves an object along a straight line when it is x feet from the origin.  We are asked to find the work done in moving the object from x = 1 ft to x = 10 ft.

We know that dW=Fdx, where F represents force.

dW=3x^{-2}dx

Now, we will integrate both sides of equation as:

\int\limits{dw} =\int\limits^{10}_1 {3x^{-2} \, dx

Take the constant out:

\int\limits{1dw} =3\int\limits^{10}_1 {x^{-2} \, dx

w =3\int\limits^{10}_1 {x^{-2} \, dx

Upon applying power rule of integrals, we will get:

w =3\/[ \frac{x^{-2+1}}{-2+1} ]^{10}_1

w =3[ \frac{x^{-1}}{-1} ]^{10}_1

w =3[ -\frac{1}{x} ]^{10}_1

w =3[ -\frac{1}{10} -(-\frac{1}{1})]

w =3[ -\frac{1}{10}+\frac{10}{10})]

w =3[\frac{9}{10}]

w=2.70

Therefore, the work done by the object is 2.70J.

Traveling math word problem - thank you! :)
Anni [7]

<u>We are given:</u>

car and train leave at the same time

average velocity of car = 50 miles/hour

average velocity of train = 70 miles/hour

train arrives 2 hours early

<u>Assuming variables and making equations!</u>

let the time taken by the train = t hours

since the car arrived late, it took more time as compared to the train

time taken by the car = t + 2 hours

since the distance from Pasadena to Sacramento doesn't change, both the vehicles covered the same distance, d

<u>Distance travelled by the car:</u>

d = 50 \frac{miles}{hour} * (t+2) hours                             [distance = velocity * time]

d = 50(t+2) miles

rewriting in terms of t

t = \frac{d-100}{50}

<u>Distance travelled by the train:</u>

d = 70 \frac{miles}{hour} * t hours

d = 70t miles

rewriting in terms of t

t = \frac{d}{70}

now we have two expressions for t, both of which are equal because t is just the time taken by the train

<u>Finding the distance:</u>

<u></u>t = \frac{d-100}{50}<u></u>

<u></u>t = \frac{d}{70}<u></u>

because t is the same:

\frac{d-100}{50} = \frac{d}{70}

\frac{d-100}{5} = \frac{d}{7}

7(d - 100) = 5(d)

7d - 700 = 5d

(7d - 5d) - 700 = 0                                        [subtracting 5d from both sides]

2d = 700                                                       [adding 700 on both sides]

d = 350 miles                                               [dividing both sides by 2]      

The distance between Pasadena and Sacramento is 350 miles!

Please help me figure this out
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

True          

(1) You can prove two triangles are similar using AA similarity.

(2)If side length of similar figure have ration \frac{m}{n} then the ratio of surface areas will be:\frac{m^2}{n^2}

(3)If side length of similar figure have ratio of \frac{2}{3} then perimeter will have ratio:\frac{2}{3}.

False:

(1)If side length of similar figure have ration \frac{m}{n} then the ratio of Volumes will be:\frac{m^3}{n^3}

(2)If side length of similar figure have ration \frac{m}{n} then the ratio of surface area  will be:2\frac{m}{n}

Help me please ! Thank you so so much :)
notka56 [123]
#4 = B
Explanation= Because C&A are the same angle measurement, and the 90 angle is along a straight line making the other angle 90, and the triangles share the same side the postulate you can use is AAS because you can prove that the triangles share 2 common angles and 1 common side

#5 = B
Explanation= Because the triangles already have 1 congruent angle, and 1 congruent side the only thing left we can prove is that because the triangles mirror each other, they have congruent opposite angles (may be called vertical angles) as well so they have 2 angles and 1 side in common which tells you to use AAS

Answer:

π=C2r

Step-by-step explanation:

if the πgoes to the other side of equal then the C will go to other side to multiply the 2r

Y varies jointly as x and √z . If y = 6 when x = 3 and z = 9, find y when x = 4 and √z = 3.6.
Alenkinab [10]
Y =  kx√z   where k is some constant

To find the value of k we plug in the given values of x,y and z:-

6 = k*3*√9
6 = k*3*3
9k = 6
k = 6/9 = 2/3

so the relation is y = (2/3)x√z

When x = 4 and √z = 3.6 we have:-

y = (2/3)*4 * 3.6

=  9.6 Answer
