Answer:

d = 1.46 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by obtaining the relationship between the force (F) and the distance (d). This can be obtained as follow:

From the question given above,

F is inversely proportional to square of d. This can be written as:

F ∝ 1/d²

F = K/d²

Cross multiply

K = Fd²

But:

Force (F) = 0.006 N

Distance (d) = 4 m

Constant (K) =?

K = Fd²

K = 0.006 × 4²

K = 0.006 × 16

K = 0.096 Nm²

Therefore, the relationship between the force (F) and the distance (d) is:

F = K/d²

F = 0.096 / d²

Finally, we shall determine the distance when the force is 0.045 N. This can be obtained as follow:

Force (F) = 0.045 N

Constant (K) = 0.096 Nm²

Distance (d) =?

F = K/d²

0.045 = 0.096 / d²

Cross multiply

0.045 × d² = 0.096

Divide both side by 0.045

d² = 0.096 / 0.045

Take the square root of both side.

d = √(0.096 / 0.045)

d = 1.46 m.

In this triangle, side a = 24 units, side b = 10 units, and side c = 26 units. is this a right triangle?
egoroff_w [7]
Yes, because 24^2 is 576 and 10^2 is 100. Together, its 676. And the square root of 26 is 676. So, yes it is a right triangle.

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

$1280000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

John has a life insurance policy that will pay his family $32,000 per year if he dies

If interest rates are at 2.5% when the insurance company has to pay

The amount of the lump sum that the insurance company must out into a bank account can be determined by the division of the amount to be paid by the interest rate.

i.e

the amount of the lump sum = $32000/2.5%

the amount of the lump sum = $32000/0.025

the amount of the lump sum = $1280000
