The trigonometric ratios are sine, cosine and tangent. We can use cosine to find the length of the shadow from the calculation as 1.7 ft.

<h3>What is trigonometric ratio?</h3>

The term trigonometric ratio has to do with sine, cosine and tangent which are used to solve problems that involve the right angled triangle.

Using the geometry of the right angle triangle, we can find the tangent of the angle 30 in order to obtain the length of the shadow.

Tan 30° = opp/3

opp = 3Tan 30°

opp = 1.7 ft

The length of the girl's shadow from the calculation is 1.7 ft.

A shopper pushes a 5.32 kg grocery cart with a 12.7 N force directed at -28.7° below horizontal. A friction force of 8.33 N push
atroni [7]

Answer:

0.8214 m/s^2

Explanation:

Fnet= Fpushed - Ffriction

Fpushed = 12.7N      Ffriction = 8.33N

Fnet = 12.7N - 8.33N = 4.37N

Fnet= mass(acceleration)

Fnet = 4.37N    mass = 5.32 kg

4.37N = 5.32 kg(acceleration)

acceleration= 0.8214 m/s^2

Katen [24]

Answer: W = 1.5 J

Explanation: Work is the product of force and distance. It can be expressed in the following formula W = Fd.

W = Fd

    = 5 N ( 0.3 M )

    = 1.5 J
