The pendulum swings at an arc of 30 cm and its successive swings reduced to 10% of the previous swings. What is the total distan

OleMash [197]

Answer:

$S_g= 33.333cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Arc of 30 cm

10% reduction after each swing

Generally sum of geometric sequence is given by the equation

$S_g=\frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}$

Mathematically solving for total distance traveled we have

$S_g=\frac{30(1-(0.10^5)}{1-(0.10)}$

$S_g=\frac{30}{0.9}$

Therefore the total distance traveled by the pendulum after 5 swings

$S_g= 33.333cm$

the cost of fencing a rectangular field at rupees 30 per metre is rupees 2400 if the length of the its field is 24m than its bre

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

breadth = 8, length = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 2 x (length x breadth)

= 2 x ((24 + b) + b))

= 2 x (24 + 2b)

= 48 + 4 b

48 + 4b meters costs rupees 2400

each meter costs rupees 30

so,

30 x (48 + 4b) = 2400

1440 + 120b = 2400

120b = 960

b = 8

the breadth is 8m, the length is 8 + 24 = 32m
