A triangular lamina has vertices (0, 0), (0, 1) and (c, 0) for some positive constant c. Assuming constant mass density, show that the y-coordinate of the center of mass of the lamina is independent of the constant c.

Answers

Answer 1

The equation of the line through (0, 1) and (c, 0) is

y - 0 = (0 - 1)/(c - 0) (x - c)   ==>   y = 1 - x/c

Let L denote the given lamina,

L = {(x, y) : 0 ≤ x ≤ c and 0 ≤ y ≤ 1 - x/c}

Then the center of mass of L is the point [tex](\bar x,\bar y)[/tex] with coordinates given by

[tex]\bar x = \dfrac{M_x}m \text{ and } \bar y = \dfrac{M_y}m[/tex]

where [tex]M_x[/tex] is the first moment of L about the x-axis, [tex]M_y[/tex] is the first moment about the y-axis, and m is the mass of L. We only care about the y-coordinate, of course.

Let ρ be the mass density of L. Then L has a mass of

[tex]\displaystyle m = \iint_L \rho \,\mathrm dA = \rho\int_0^c\int_0^{1-\frac xc}\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = \frac{\rho c}2[/tex]

Now we compute the first moment about the y-axis:

[tex]\displaystyle M_y = \iint_L x\rho\,\mathrm dA = \rho \int_0^c\int_0^{1-\frac xc}x\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = \frac{\rho c^2}6[/tex]

Then

[tex]\bar y = \dfrac{M_y}m = \dfrac{\dfrac{\rho c^2}6}{\dfrac{\rho c}2} = \dfrac c3[/tex]

but this clearly isn't independent of c ...

Maybe the x-coordinate was intended? Because we would have had

[tex]\displaystyle M_x = \iint_L y\rho\,\mathrm dA = \rho \int_0^c\int_0^{1-\frac xc}y\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = \frac{\rho c}6[/tex]

and we get

[tex]\bar x = \dfrac{M_x}m = \dfrac{\dfrac{\rho c}6}{\dfrac{\rho c}2} = \dfrac13[/tex]

Answer 2

The center of mass for a uniform triangular shape is on its centroid. The y-coordinate of the center of mass of the lamina is 1/3 (independent of c).

What is the center of mass for a triangular shape?

If the surface is plane triangle approximately and mass is uniformally distributed, then its center of mass will lie on the centroid of that triangle.

What is centroid of a triangle and its coordinates?

The point of intersection of a triangle's medians is its centroid (the lines joining each vertex with the midpoint of the opposite side).

If the triangle has its vertices as  [tex](x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2) , \: (x_3, y_3)[/tex], then the coordinates of the centroid of that triangle is given by:

[tex](x,y) = \left( \dfrac{x_1 + x_2 + x_3}{3} + \dfrac{y_1 + y_2 + y_3}{3} \right)[/tex]

For this case, the  triangular lamina has vertices (0, 0), (0, 1) and (c, 0)

Assuming its mass is spread regularly, the coordinates of its center of mass would be:

[tex](x,y) = \left( \dfrac{x_1 + x_2 + x_3}{3} + \dfrac{y_1 + y_2 + y_3}{3} \right)\\\\(x,y) = \left( \dfrac{0+0+c}{3} + \dfrac{0+1+0}{3} \right) = (c/3, 1/3)[/tex]

Thus, the y-coordinate of the center of mass of the lamina is 1/3 (independent of c).

How much would you need to deposit in an account each month in order to have $50,000 in the account in 8 years? Assume the account earns 4% annual interest compounded monthly.

Answers

Answer:

$540.98

Step-by-step explanation:

future value= $ 50,000

number of deposits (n)= 8*12 = 96

rate (r) = 4% per month

= 4÷12 per annum

= 0.33% p.a

i = 0.33÷100

= 0.0033

We know,

Future value of annuity = P÷i [ (1 + i)^n - 1 ]

$50,000 = P÷ 0.0033 [ ( 1+0.0033)^96 - 1]

$50,000 * 0.0033=P [ (1.0033)^96 - 1 ]

$165 = P*0.305

P = $165÷0.305

P = $ 540.98

Rough::

let x= 1.0033)^96

log x = 96 * log (1.0033)

log x = 0.1156

x = Antilog (0.1156)

= 1.305

1.305 - 1 = 0.305

Answer:

[tex]y=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we can use the point-slope formula as we are given points on the line. This is the format:

[tex]y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )[/tex]

The first step is to find the slope by substituting in two of the points. Let's try using (7,2) and (3,2):

[tex]2-2=m(7-3)\\0=4m\\m=0[/tex]

So now we have found that our slope is 0 meaning it is a flat line (shown by the unchanging y values through all three points).

The form for line equations is:

[tex]y=mx+c[/tex]

However, since our m=0, it is simplified to this:

[tex]y=c[/tex]

The y-value for all the points is 2, meaning c=2 (as it is also the y-intercept)

Therefore our final equation is:

[tex]y=2[/tex]

The answer is s = d/t

Step-by-step explanation:

For question 12, I think this is called a literal equation, I might be wrong but I believe so it is a literal equation. They are asking you to get s on one side. And they are asking you what s is in terms of d and t. So what you do is, d = s x t. You multiply the t with the s and get d = st. Then you will divide t from both sides so, d/t = s/t, this will eliminate t from the s, and add it on to the d (distance). Which will leave you s on one side and d and t on the other. The answer is s = d/t.

S O L U T I O N :

Section 3

12) a) Here, as we need that s or speed is the subject so speed should be in place of distance. So, we get

s = d/t

Here, s is speed, d is distance and t is the time

12) b) We know that :

Average Speed = Total Distance/Total Time

Here, total distance is given 748 km

total time 11.5 hrs

Avg. Speed = 748/11.5

Avg. Speed = 65.04 km/h

Hence, the answer is 65.04 km/h

13) a) We know that volume of a rabbit hutch is

Volume of rabbit hutch = ½ × b × h × l

Here,

b is the breadth, h is the height and l is the length

Volume= ½ × 50 cm × 50 cm × 2.5 m

Now, here Length is in metre so we need to convert to cm

1 m = 100 cm

2.5 m = 2.5 × 100 = 250 cm

So, now

Volume= ½ × 50 cm × 50 cm × 250 cm

Volume = 50 cm × 50 cm × 125 cm

Volume = 312,500 cm³

Hence, the volume of this hutch is 312,500 cm³

13) b) Let us assume that the orange be a sphere

So, volume of orange = 4/3πr³

Here, r is the radius and π is pi

radius is 4 cm

Volume = 4/3π(4)³

Volume = 4/3 × 64π

Volume = 85.33π cm³

Volume of the orange is 85.33π cm³

Find the distance of the point (4,4,−4) from the line r(t)=⟨−1+2t,1+2t,3−3t⟩.

Answers

Translate the given point and line together so that you get a new point and a new line that passes through the origin. This turns the problem into finding the distance between the new point,

p = (4, 4, -4) - (-1, 1, 3) = (5, 3, -7)

and the new line,

r*(t) = r(t) - ⟨-1, 1, 3⟩ = ⟨2t, 2t, -3t

Let p = ⟨5, 3, -7⟩, the vector starting at the origin and pointing to p. Then the quantity ||p - r*(t)|| is the distance from the point p to the line r*(t).

Let u be such that ||p - r*(t)|| is minimized. At the value t = u, the vector p - r*(t) is orthogonal to the line r*(t), so that

(p - r*(u) ) • r*(u) = 0

I've attached a sketch with all these elements in case this description is confusing. (The red dashed line is meant to be perpendicular to r*(t).)

Solve this equation for u :

p • r*(u) - r*(u) • r*(u) = 0

p • r*(u) = r*(u) • r*(u)

and x • x = ||x||² for any vector x, so

p • r*(u) = ||r*(u)||²

⟨5, 3, -7⟩ • ⟨2u, 2u, -3u⟩ = (2u)² + (2u)² + (-3u

10u + 6u + 21u = 4u ² + 4u ² + 9u ²

17u ² - 37u = 0

u (17u - 37) = 0

==>   u = 0   or   u = 37/17

We ignore u = 0, since the dot product of any vector with the zero vector is 0.

Then the minimum distance distance between the given point and line is

||p - r*(u)|| = ||⟨5, 3, -7⟩ - 37/17 ⟨2, 2, -3⟩|| = √(42/17)

If f(x) = 4x + 5 and fog(x) = 8x + 13 then find g(x).​

4x+5(g(x)):: 8x+13

g(x):: 8x+13/4x+5

Answer:

g(x) = 2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given the following information:

f(x) = 4x + 5f o g (x) = 8x + 13

One is asked to find the following:

g(x)

Remember, (f o g (x)) is another way of representing a composite function. A more visual way of representing this composite function is the following (f(g(x)). In essence, one substitutes the function (g(x)) into the function (f(x)) in places of the varaible (x). Thus, represent this in the form of an equation:

f(g(x)) = 8x + 13

Substitute the given infromation into the equation:

4(g(x)) + 5 = 8x + 13

Solve for (g(x)) in terms of (x). Remember to treat (g(x)) as a single parameter:

4(g(x)) + 5 = 8x + 13

Inverse operations,

4(g(x)) + 5 = 8x + 13

4(g(x)) = 8x + 8

g(x) = (8x + 8) ÷ 4

g(x) = 2x + 2

Sandra has $75 to spend on a new outfit. She finds a
sweater that costs twice as much the skirt. What is the most
the skirt can cost?
Let s represent the cost of the skirt.
Inequality: _____________________
The most the skirt can cost is _____________________.

Answers

The skirt = s

The sweater is twice as much so 2s

The total sum has to equal or be less than $75

Inequality = s + 2s <=75

Simplify to 3s <= 75

Most the skirt can cost: solve for s:

3s <= 75

Divide both sides by 3

S <= 25

The most the skirt can cost is $25

Answer:

Inequality: s ≤ 25

Max skirt cost: $25

Step-by-step explanation:

s = skirt cost

x =  sweater cost

Since the sweater costs twice as much as the skirt, an equation will look like this:  

x = 2s

Since her budget is $75, that means she can spend $75 or less but not more, so another equation will look like this:

x + s ≤ 75

Plug 2s into the bottom equation

2s + s ≤ 75

Add up the terms

3s ≤ 75

Divide both sides by 3, the coefficient, to isolate s, the variable.

3s/3 ≤ 75/3

s ≤ 25

That means she can spend $25 or less on a skirt.
