You need to find the acceleration once the rope starts acting.

For that, first you need the velocity, V, when Karen ends the 2.0 m free fall

V^2 = Vo^2 + 2gd = 0^2 + 2* 9.81m/s^2 * 2.0 m = 39.24 m^2 / s^2 => V = 6.26 m/s

From that point, the rope starts acting with a net force that produces a constant acceleration, modeled as per these values and equation:

Vo = 6.26m/s
Vf = 0

Vf^2 = Vo^2 + 2ad => a = [Vf^2 - Vo^2] / 2d = [0^2 - (6.26 m/s)2 ] /2(1m) = -19.62 m/s^2

That acceleration is due to the difference of the force applied by the rope - the weight of Karen:

Weight of Karen: mg

Weight of karen - Force of the rope = Net force = ma

mg - Force of the rope = ma

Force of the rope = mg - ma = m(g -a) = m [9.81m/s^2 - (-19.62m/s^2) ]= 29.43m

To express it as a multiple of her weight, divide it by her weight (mg = 9.81m) =>

29.43m / 9.81m = 3.0

Answer: 3.0 times.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

(See explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is:

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot 27 \cdot \frac{2\cdot x}{3}$

Its simplified form is presented hereafter:

$f(x) = 9\cdot x$

The resultant expression is a linear function, first-order polynomial, whose domain and range are the set of the real numbers.

Dimensional Analysis Method (also called conversion factor or unit analysis) (Appendix D: Dimensional Analysis, Page 397) o The

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The dimensional analysis method uses equivalences written in fractional form. Because the numerator and denominator of the fraction are equivalent, the value of the fraction is 1. Multiplying by 1 does not change the quantity, but using an equivalence will change the units (or label). In order for units to cancel they must be in the numerator and the denominator of the fraction

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensional analysis is a method of problem solving that takes into consideration the identity property of multiplication whereby the product of a number and 1 will always give the same number, that is 1 × n = n whereby the value "n" remains the same after the multiplication

Therefore, a fraction of two equivalent measurements but different units has a value of 1, and multiplying the equivalent fraction with another measurement with the same unit as the denominator of the fraction with a value of 1 changes the unit to that of the unit of the numerator

Which problem can be solved using the equation shown? 2 dollars and 50 cents x minus 2 dollars = 10 dollars and 50 cents Will bo

Black_prince [1.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Will bought several books that cost $ 2.50 each and received a $ 2 discount on the total bill. If he paid $ 10.50, how many books did he buy ?

2.50x - 2.00 = 10.50

2.50x = 10.50 + 2.00

2.50x = 12.50

x = 12.50/2.50

x = 5....he bought 5 books

Fill in the blanks. a. A relative-frequency distribution is to a variable as a __________ distribution is to a random variable

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

a. A relative-frequency distribution is to a variable as a ___probability_______ distribution is to a random variable. b. A relative-frequency histogram is to a variable as a _____probability_____ histogram is to a random variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is a type of mathematics which deals with numerical descriptions of how likely an event would occur, or how likely it is that a the occurrence would be true. The probability of an event is usually between 0 and 1,

where 0 represent impossibility and 1 represents the chance of it occurring.

For the binomial expansion of (x + y)^10, the value of k in the term 210x 6y k is a) 6 b) 4 c) 5 d) 7

Sloan [31]

Answer:

a) 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding the polynomial using the formula:

$(x+y)^n=\sum_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k} x^{n-k} y^k$

Also

$\binom{n}{k}=\frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}$

I think you mean $210x^6y^4$

We can deduce that this term will be located somewhere in the middle. So I will calculate $k= 5; k=6 \text{ and } k =7$ .

For $k=5$

$\binom{10}{5} (y)^{10-5} (x)^{5}=\frac{10!}{(10-5)! 5!}(y)^{5} (x)^{5}= \frac{10 \cdot 9 \cdot 8 \cdot 7 \cdot 6 \cdot 5! }{5! \cdot 5 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 } \\ =\frac{30240}{120} =252 x^{5} y^{5}$

Note that we actually don't need to do all this process. There's no necessity to calculate the binomial, just $x^{n-k} y^k$

For $k=6$

$\binom{10}{6} \left(y\right)^{10-6} \left(x\right)^{6}=\frac{10!}{(10-6)! 6!}\left(y\right)^{4} \left(x\right)^{6}=210 x^{6} y^{4}$
