<span>The person is dragging with a force of 58 lbs at an angle of 27 degrees relating to the ground. We want to use cosine function to look for the horizontal force component. And then we can compute for W = (Horizontal Force) x (Distance). We want the horizontal force component since that is the component that is parallel to the direction the cart is moving. </span><span>

(cos 27 degrees)(58 lbs) = 51.69 lbs (This is the horizontal force component.) 
W = (51.69 lbs) x (70 ft) = 3618.3 ft*lbs</span>

5. One of the attractions at Typhoon Lagoon, a water park in Florida, is a surf
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

1595790 gallons

Explanation:

Given that;

3.8 L = 1 US gallon

303,200.0 liters = 303,200.0 * 1/ 3.8 = 79789.5 gallons

If a wave is made every 90 seconds which is 1.5 mins

Then;

Number of waves made in 30 minutes = 30/1.5 = 20 waves

if each uses 79789.5 gallons, then 20 waves will use 20 * 79789.5 gallons = 1595790 gallons

Find the length of an arc with a radius of 6.0m swept across 2.5 radians.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Hello!

In terms of an arc length, radians is the measurement of an arc length in terms of the original radius. This arc length is 2.5 radians, so we multiply it by our original radius.

2.5(6)=15

Therefore, the arc length is 15 meters.

I hope this helps!

Suppose you read in the newspaper that a new planet has been found. Its average speed in its orbit is 33 kilometers per second (
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

E. Kepler's second law says the planet must move fastest when it is closest, not  when it is farthest away.

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Kepler's second law of planetary motion, which states that:

"A line connecting the center of the Sun with the center of each planet sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time"

This means that when a planet is further away from the Sun, it will move slower (because the line is longer, so it must move slower), while when the planet is closer to the Sun, it will move faster (because the line is shorter, so it must move faster).

In the text of this problem, it is written that the planet moves at 31 km/s when is close to the star and 35 km/s when it is farthest: this is in disagreement with what we said above, therefore the correct option is

E. Kepler's second law says the planet must move fastest when it is closest, not  when it is farthest away.

Bats use a process called echolocation to find their food. This involves giving out sound waves that hit possible prey or food.
cupoosta [38]
The type of waves used by bats are sound waves. Most of the species use their larynx to produce ultrasound waves in the frequency range of 20 to 200 kilohertz.
These sound waves are echoed, reflected, by surroundings, in this case food or prey. These reflections are received by the specialized receptor cells in the ears of bats. The reflections are analyzed by the brain to make an image.
Fun fact: The brain cells of bats are also specialized to better analyze the frequency of ultrasound used by the bat.
