While traveling in a car, the centrifugal force a passenger experiences as the car drives in a circle varies jointly as the mass

of the passenger and the square of the speed of the car. If a passenger experiences a force of 226.8 newtons (N) when the car is moving at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour and the passenger has a mass of 70 kilograms, find the force a passenger experiences when the car is moving at 40 kilometers per hour and the passenger has a mass of 90 kilograms
A) 129.6 N
B) 144 N
C) 160 N
D) 115.2N

Answer:

A- 129.6 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the centrifugal force on the passenger, F varies jointly as the mass of the passenger, m and the square of the speed of the car,v. In mathematical notation, F ∝ mv² ⇒ F = kmv².

If F₁ = 226.8 Newtons, m₁ = 70 kilograms and speed v₁ = 60 kilometers per hour. From F= kmv², k = F/mv² the proportionality constant. If F₂ is the force on the passenger of mass m₂ = 90 kilograms and speed of car ,v₂ = 40 kilometers per hour. Then,

k = \frac{F_{1} }{m_{1}v_{1} ^{2}  } = \frac{F_{2} }{m_{2}v_{2} ^{2}  }\\ F_{2} = F_{1} \frac{m_{2} }{m_{1} }(\frac{v_{2} }{v_{1} }) ^{2}    \\F_{2} =  226.8\frac{90 }{70 }(\frac{40 }{60 }) ^{2}\\F_{2} = 129.6 newtons

Solve the equation ​
UNO [17]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

2x/3 + 1 = 7x/15 + 3

<em><u>(times everything in the equation by 3 to get rid of the first fraction)</u></em>

2x + 3 = 21x/15 + 9

<em><u>(times everything in the equation by 15 to get rid of the second fraction)</u></em>

30x+ 45 = 21x + 135

<em><u>(subtract 21x from 30x; subtract 45 from 135)</u></em>

9x = 90

<em><u>(divide 90 by 9)</u></em>

x = 10

<h2>Another solution:</h2>

2x/3 + 1 = 7x/15 + 3

<u><em>(find the LCM of 3 and 15 = 15)</em></u>

<u><em>(multiply everything in the equation by 15, then simplify)</em></u>

10x + 15 = 7x + 45

<u><em>(subtract 7x from 10x; subtract 15 from 45)</em></u>

3x = 30

<em><u>(divide 30 by 3)</u></em>

x = 10

Find the common ratio for the following sequence .1, .01, .001
morpeh [17]

Answer:

0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>common ratio</em> of a sequence is the number you multiply one term to get the next one. Here, we multiply 0.1 by 0.1 to get 0.01, and 0.01 by 0.1 to get 0.001, so our common ratio is 0.1.
