Answer:
2442.5 Nm
Explanation:
Tension, T = 8.57 x 10^2 N
length of rope, l = 8.17 m
y = 0.524 m
h = 2.99 m
According to diagram
Sin θ = (2.99 - 0.524) / 8.17
Sin θ = 0.3018
θ = 17.6°
So, torque about the base of the tree is
Torque = T x Cos θ x 2.99
Torque = 8.57 x 100 x Cos 17.6° x 2.99
Torque = 2442.5 Nm
thus, the torque is 2442.5 Nm.
I believe that this question has the following choices to
choose from:
placer deposits
fossil compaction
hydrothermal solutions
igneous processes
Actually among all, I have never encountered an ore that
formed due to fossil compaction. I suppose we can get minerals such as marble
or lime but not ores. So the answer is:
