Answer:

E.) None of the above

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.  There are two forces acting on the car.  Normal force perpendicular to the road, and weight downward.

Sum of the forces perpendicular to the road:

∑F = ma

N − mg cos θ = 0

N = mg cos θ

Sum of the forces towards the center of the circle:

∑F = ma

N sin θ = mv²/r

mg cos θ sin θ = mv²/r

g cos θ sin θ = v²/r

v = √(gr cos θ sin θ)

Given r = 50 m and θ = 5°:

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 50 m × cos 5° × sin 5°)

v = 6.52 m/s

v = 14.6 mph

PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Construct a vector diagram. It will be a right-angled triangle. One vector (the hypotenuse) represents the heading of the boat, one represents the current and one represents the resultant speed of the boat, which I'll call x. Their magnitudes are 20, 3 and x. Let the required angle = theta. We have: 

<span>theta = arcsin(3/20) = approx. 8.63° </span>

<span>The boat should head against the current in a direction approx. 8.63° to the line connecting the dock with the point opposite, or approx. 81.37° to the shore line. </span>

<span>x = sqrt(20^2 - 3^2) </span>
<span>= sqrt(400 - 9) </span>
<span>= sqrt 391 </span>

<span>The boat's crossing time = </span>
<span>0.5 km/(sqrt 391 km/hr) </span>
<span>= (0.5/sqrt 391) hr </span>
<span>= approx. 0.025 hr </span>
<span>= approx. 91 seconds</span>

Leni [432]

Answer:

The length of line is 78 cm or 0.78 m.

Explanation:

initial reading 2 mark

final reading 80 cm

The length of the line

= final reading - initial reading

= 80 - 2

= 78 cm

1 cm = 0.01  m

So, 78 cm = 0.78 m

Which energy transformations BEST illustrates why people can walk? A) Chemical energy is being converted into light energy. B) C
Gekata [30.6K]

The answer is letter c.

The explanation behind this is when human consumes a plant or when a human being eats an animal that ate a plant. The chemical energy kept in the plant (or animal) cells is progressed into the cells of the human's body. All of the body progressions, like ingestion, breathing, pumping blood, are driven by cells changing the kept chemical energy into heat and work, in a procedure called respiration. In the muscle cells of the human (or any animal), the chemical energy is converted into mechanical work and heat. The muscle pacts, the legs thrust, and the body jumps into the air.
