Answer:
W1 = W2 = 50k Joules (assuming W1 and W2 have the same force constant, k)
W1 - W2 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Work done in stretching a spring is given by 1/2ke^2
Where, k is force constant and e is extension
e1 = 30cm - 20cm = 10cm
W1 = 1/2k(e1)^2 = 1/2×k×10^2 = 50k Joules
e2 = 40cm - 30cm = 10cm
W2 = 1/2k(e2)^2 = 1/2×k×10^2 = 50k Joules
W1 = W2 = 50k Joules provided W1 and W2 have equal force constant
Therefore, W1 - W2 = 0
I believe this question logically tells us to find the value of w. The two equations are already equated. Since there is 1 unknown and 1 equation, the system is solvable. The solution is as follows:
5/(6w+21) = -1/3(2w - 9)
5/(6w+21) = -1/(6w - 27)
Cross multiplying the terms:
5(6w - 27) = -1(6w +21)
30w - 135 = -6w - 21
30w + 6w = -21 + 135 = 114
36w = 114
w = 114/36
w = 19/6 or 3.167
Easiest ways to solve them are to take the denominator and numerator and and divide the one you are asked to use to answer and divide and see if it works on both.
Example: first 105 / 15 = 7 ) Then: 105 / 7 = 15
119 ) 119 / 7 = 17
Hope I helped. :D
3.75 / 5 =0.75
0.75 x 8 = 6
So one yard is 6
Sorry, I’m not American so I don’t know about dollars but this should be correct x
Infinitely many, because if you simplified the right side, it would equal the left side.
