Answer:

a=-4.3

Why?:

You would have to keep the answer negative, this is because if it were to be positive it would make the negative decrease.

You could easily get a line paper and line up-

-4.3

+ -1.2

_______

-5.5

-5.5-(-1.2) would make the equation end up like -5.5+1.2, and -5.5+1.2=-4.3

Therefore,

a=-4.3

Answer:

-4.3

Step-by-step explanation:

a+(-1.2)= -5.5

a-1.2=-5.5

add 1.2 to both sides

a-1.2+1.2= - 5.5+1.2

simplify

a= - 4.3

Finally, suppose m1→∞, while m2 remains finite. what value does the the magnitude of the tension approach?
Anna007 [38]
The answer is not infinity. 
<span>Consider FBDs of each mass with the direction of motion of m1 as positive </span>

<span>m1*g-T=m1*a </span>

<span>T-m2*g=m2*a </span>

<span>assuming mass less cord and mass less, friction less pulley </span>
<span>the accelerations are equal </span>
<span>a=(T-m2*g)/m2 </span>

<span>m1*g-T=m1*(T-m2*g)/m2 </span>
<span>do some algebra </span>
<span>m1*g-T=m1*T/m2-m1*g </span>
<span>2*m1*g=T*(1+m1/m2) </span>
<span>2*m1*m2*g=T*(m2+m1) </span>
<span>2*m1*m2*g/(m2+m1)=T </span>
<span>now take the limit of T as m1->infinity </span>
<span>T=2*m2*g </span>

<span>this is intuitively correct since the maximum acceleration of m1 is -g, the cord transfers the acceleration to m2, which is being acted on by gravity downward and an upward acceleration of g. Therefore the maximum acceleration of m1 is 2*g upward. </span>

7) The principal at a high school is planning a concert to raise money for the music programs. He determines
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The smallest amout that the school should charge is $4.70.

Step-by-step explanation:

p = -200t2 + 3600t - 6400

p = -200 x 4.7 x 2 + 3600 x 4.7 - 6400

p = -1880 + 16920 - 6400

p = 15120 - 6400

p = 8720
