The free body diagram consists of:

1) Weight force, which is a vertical arrow downward

2) A Normal force that is perpendicular to the ramp.

The Normal force can be decomposed in a vertical component and an horizontal component.

The vertical component, Ny,  must equal the weight force, due to equilibrium (rest) condiition =>

Ny = weight = m*g = 5.5kg*9.8m/s^2 = 53.9 N

By geometry the vertical component of the Normal force, Ny is such that

cos (angle) = N / Ny => N = Ny * cos(angle)

=> N = 53.9N * cos(angle)

Now use that equation for each option:

a) 0 ° => N = 53.9N * cos(0) = 53.9N

b) 12° => N = 53.9 * cos(12) = 52.7N

c) 25° => N = 53.9 * cos(25) = 48.9N

d) 45° => N = 53.9 * cos(45) = 38.1N

DAT Explain the significance of resouras. Suggest any three ways to conserve resources to achieve sustainable. development​
qaws [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

Resources may be explained as a range of products, equipment, manpower and all other things an individual or organization has at its disposal in other to function prey and effectively.

Resources may also be natural which will include all resources borne out of nature such as air, sunlight, mineral resources and all resources devoid of human doing.

Resources are required on other to ensure that an organization functions well as it will be impossible to produce without the needed help (resources). Similarly, it will be impossible to survive without the availability of nature resources as they help us breath, make money, in food production and so on.

Resources conservation involves the effective and efficient use of resources. Conservation of resources can be enhanced in ways such as :

Embracing the use of renewables : The use of renewable energy sources provides a clean choice of energy which is obtained from nature's routine. The use of solar energy frolic the sun or wind powered energy obtained from natural breeze or wind.

Embrace Recycling : Recycling involves the reuse of already used materials as a form of raw material to make new products, these ensures that optimum use of the resources at our disposal is achieved while also ensuring that we have a cleaner environment.

Use of reusable goods or materials : The large influx of onr-tine use products such as disposables and certain plastic materials has contributed to large quantities of water materials on landfills, they adoption of reusable materials which can be used over certain period of time will go a long way in controlling these waste Influx.

5. A circle's circumference is 600 m. What is a good approximation of the circle's area?
True [87]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

C = 2 Pi r

600 = 2 (3.14) r

600 = 6.28 r

r = 600 / 6.28

r = 95.54

Area:

A = Pi (r^2)

A = 3.14 (9127.90)

A = 28.666 m^2
