How to factorise 6x^2-11x-10?

Firstly, when we need to factorise an expression like ax2 + bx + c, we should find two numbers m and n such that mn = ac and m+n = b. In this question, a = 6, b = -11, c = -10. So mn = -60 and ...

Show that (x+2)(x+3)(x+4) can be written in the form of ax^3+bx^2+cx+d where a, b, c and d are positive integers.

This is a 'show that' question which means that you need to prove that something is true. This question wants you to rewrite (x+2)(x+3)(x+4) into the form of ax^3+bx^2+cx+d. To do this, we have to expand ...

Using the principle of the conservation of energy, calculate the maximum speed of a ball of 5.0kg that has been dropped from a height of 20m. (Given that the gravitational field strength is equal to 9.8N/kg)

Answer: 20ms-1The gravitational potential energy before the ball is dropped is equal to mgh. This gives the ball a maximum gravitational potential energy of 5.0kg * 9.8N/kg 20m which is equ...

Given that a light ray enters a glass prism at angle of 50 degrees from the normal and is refracted to an angle of 30 degrees from the normal, calculate the speed of light in glass.

Answer: 1.96108ms-1.Snell's law tells us that n1sin(x1)= n2 sin(x2) where x is the angle of a light ray from the normal. Air can be as...
