Why are renewable energy resources going to be important in our future
marshall27 [118]
Renewable resources are going to be important in our future because if we use up all of our NON-renewable resources now, then we’ll still have the renewable resources to depend on.
I hope this helped! :-)

The block in the figure below has a mass of 5.1 kg and it rests on an incline of angle . You pull on the rope with a force F = 3
viktelen [127]

42.9°

Explanation:

Let's assume that the x-axis is aligned with the incline and the positive direction is up the incline. We can then apply Newton's 2nd law as follows:

x:\;\;\;\;F - mg\sin{\theta} = 0\;\;\;\;

\Rightarrow mg\sin{\theta} = F

Note that the net force is zero because the block is moving with a constant speed when the angle of the incline is set at \theta. Solving for the angle, we get

\sin{\theta} = \dfrac{F}{mg}

or

\theta = \sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac{F}{mg}\right)

\;\;\;=  \sin^{-1}\left[\dfrac{34\:\text{N}}{(5.1\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)}\right]

\;\;\;=42.9°

A 10-ft ladder is leaning against a wall. If the top of the ladder slides down the wall at a rate of 2 ft/sec, how fast is the b
netineya [11]

Answer: The bottom of the ladder is moving at 3.464ft/sec

Explanation:

The question defines a right angle triangle. Therefore using pythagorean

h^2 + l^2 = 10^2 = 100 ...eq1

dh/dt = -2ft/sec

dl/ dt = ?

Taking derivatives of time in eq 1 on both sides

2hdh/dt + 2ldl/dt = 0 ....eq2

Putting l = 5ft in eq2

h^ + 5^2 = 100

h^2 = 25 = 100

h Sqrt(75)

h = 8.66 ft

Put h = 8.66ft in eq2

2 × 8.66 × (-2) + 2 ×5 dl/dt

dl/dt = 17.32 / 5

dl/dt = 3.464ft/sec
