Kinetic energy varies jointly as the mass and the square of the velocity. A mass of 12 grams and velocity of 3 centimeters per second has a kinetic energy of 54 ergs. Find the kinetic energy for a mass of 2 grams and velocity of 6 centimeters per second.

36 ergs

Step-by-step explanation:

Joint variation is:

If z varies jointly to x and y, then we have the expression: z = kxy, where k is a constant.

In this case, z is kinetic energy (KE), x is mass (m), and y is the square of the velocity (). So:

KE =

We have some values we can plug in to solve for k:

54 = k * 12 *

k = 1/2

Now, we have:

To find the kinetic energy for m = 2 and v = 6, we have:

KE =

Thus, the kinetic energy is 36 ergs.

Hope this helps!

36 ergs

Step-by-step explanation:

KE = k(mv²)

54 = k(12×3²)

k = 54/108 = ½

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × 2 × 6² = 36

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
