Find the values of x and y. round each answer to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangles are all similar, so corresponding sides are in proportion.

  short side / hypotenuse = 5/x = x/17

  x^2 = 85

  x = √85 ≈ 9.2

__

  short side / long side = 5/y = y/12

  y^2 = 60

  y = √60 ≈ 7.7

step-by-step explanation:

we can use this expression to calculate the energy gain as a particle moves with a field or the energy loss as it moves against it. (note that it is also used to define the electron-volt, a unit of energy equal to that gained by an electron as it falls through a pd of 1 v, i.e. w = 1 ev = 1.6 10-19 c 1 v = 1.6 10-19j).in fact this expression is really nothing more than the statement that potential is the potential energy per unit charge. in this case, v= w/qis simply stating that the change in potential energy(or work done) per unit charge is equal to the change in potential (or potential difference), v.student questions: uniform electric fields2electron beamcathode+5 kvanode0 v
