Given :
As a plane takes off it ascends at a 20 degree angle of elevation.
If the plane has been travelling at an average rate of 290 ft/s and continues to ascend at the same angle.
To Find :
How high is the plane after 10 seconds.
Solution :
Distance travelled by plane, D = 2900 ft.
Angle of elevation, Ф = 20°.
Height gained is given by :
H = 2900 × sin 20°
H = 991.86 ft.
Therefore, height of plane after 10 seconds is 991.86 ft.
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
8.2 *10^5 ft lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Wcoal = 800*500 = 400000 = 4*10^5 ft lb
Using a right Riemann sum
The width of the entire region to be estimated = 400 - 0 = 400
Considering 8 equal subdivisions, then the width of each rectangular division is 400/8 = 50
F(x) = 6(400-y)
Wrope = 50(2100) + 50(1800) + 50(1500) + 50(1200) + 50(900) + 50(600)
+ 50(300) + 50(0) = 420000 = 4.2 * 10^5 ft lb
Note: Riemann sum is an approximation, so may not give a accurate value
work done = Wcoal + Wrope= 4*10^5+ 4.2 * 10^5 = 8.2 *10^5 ft lb
