Use grouping to factor and solve the quadratic equation:
First, multiply
Then list the factors of
The only pair of factors that sums to
is
Rewrite the equation replacing the
b term,
with two terms using 3 and 12 as coefficients of
x . Factor the first two terms, and then factor the last two terms.
Solving a polynomial of higher degree by factoring
Solve the equation by factoring:
This equation does not look like a quadratic, as the highest power is 3, not 2. Recall that the first thing we want to do when solving any equation is to factor out the GCF, if one exists. And it does here. We can factor out
from all of the terms and then proceed with grouping.
Use grouping on the expression in parentheses.
Now, we use the zero-product property. Notice that we have three factors.
When there is no linear term in the equation, another method of solving a quadratic equation is by using the
square root property , in which we isolate the
term and take the square root of the number on the other side of the equals sign. Keep in mind that sometimes we may have to manipulate the equation to isolate the
term so that the square root property can be used.
The square root property
With the
term isolated, the square root property states that:
where
k is a nonzero real number.
Given a quadratic equation with an
term but no
term, use the square root property to solve it.
Isolate the
term on one side of the equal sign.
Take the square root of both sides of the equation, putting a
sign before the expression on the side opposite the squared term.
Simplify the numbers on the side with the
sign.
Solving a simple quadratic equation using the square root property
Solve the quadratic using the square root property:
Take the square root of both sides, and then simplify the radical. Remember to use a
sign before the radical symbol.
Not all quadratic equations can be factored or can be solved in their original form using the square root property. In these cases, we may use a method for solving a
quadratic equation known as
completing the square . Using this method, we add or subtract terms to both sides of the equation until we have a perfect square trinomial on one side of the equal sign. We then apply the square root property. To complete the square, the leading coefficient,
a , must equal 1. If it does not, then divide the entire equation by
a . Then, we can use the following procedures to solve a quadratic equation by completing the square.

Three charges q_{1}=+3\mu C, q_{2}=+6\mu C and q_{3}=+8\mu C are located at (2,0)m (0,0)m and (0,3) coordinates respectively. Find the magnitude and direction acted upon q_{2} by the two other charges.Draw the correct graphical illustration of the problem above showing the direction of all forces.
To solve this problem, we need to first find the net force acting on charge q_{2}. The magnitude of the force exerted by q_{1} on q_{2} is given by F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}} where k is the Coulomb constant, q_{1} and q_{2} are the charges of the particles, and r is the distance between them.

What is the direction and net electric force on q_{1}= 5µC located at (0,4)r due to charges q_{2}=7mu located at (0,0)m and q_{3}=3\mu C located at (4,0)m?
Capacitor is a separation of opposite charges using an insulator of very small dimension between them. Capacitor is used for allowing an AC (alternating current) to pass while a DC (direct current) is blocked.

which has a higher temperature, 1cup of boiling water or 1teapot of boiling water which can transfer more heat 1cup of boiling water or 1 teapot of boiling water explain your . answer
I believe temperature being an intensive property does not change for any amount of boiling water whereas heat being an extensive property changes with amount/size of the system.
Someone
Scratch that
Someone
temperature for any amount of water to boil at ntp is 100⁰C (it is a state function and and intensive property) and it depends both will give same amount of heat because the surface available for heat transfer is greater in case of the kettle as well as the heat stored in it but if you talk.....
Someone
about the amount of heat stored in the system then in that case since the mass of water in the kettle is greater so more energy is required to raise the temperature b/c more molecules of water are present in the kettle
pratica A on solution of hydro chloric acid,B is a solution containing 0.5000 mole ofsodium chlorid per dm³,put A in the burret and titrate 20.00 or 25.00cm³ portion of B using melting orange as the indicator. record the deside of your burret tabulate the burret reading and calculate the average volume of acid used?
No. According to Isac Newtons law. this two bodies maybe you and the wall beside you.
Attracting depends on the mass och each body and distance between them.

Are you really asking if two bodies have to be charged to be influenced by Coulombs Law?
Specific heat capacity is a measure of the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius (or Kelvin). It is measured in Joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C).
