f
D. k=d-f
E. kf =1
d
QUESTION 2
If y∝t2 and when t=4 , y=8 then the constant of variation is

The diagram shows a body, B , attached to the end of a light string. The string is fixed at its other end to a
point, A , on a vertical wall. The force on B due to the tension in the string is T´ and the weight force
is W´ . When a horizontal force P´ (directed away from the wall) is applied, B is held in equilibrium
with the string inclined at 45° to the vertical as shown. Which one of the following vector equations is
true?
A. P´ =W´
B. 2T´ =P´ +W´
C. P´ +W´ -T´ =O´
D. P´ +W´ +T´ =O´
