Answer:
1,809.98 lb*m/s^2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we want to know how much weight of the boulder is projected along the path in which the boulder can move.
The weight of the boulder is:
W = 322lb*9.8 m/s^2 = (3,155.6 lb*m/s^2)
This weight has a direction that is vertical, pointing downwards.
Now, we know that the angle of the hill is 35°
The angle that makes the direction of the weight and this angle, is:
(90° - 35°)
(A rough sketch of this situation can be seen in the image below)
Then we need to project the weight over this direction, and that will be given by:
P = W*cos(90° - 35°) = (3,155.6 lb*m/s^2)*cos(55°) = 1,809.98 lb*m/s^2
This is the force that Samuel needs to exert on the boulder if he wants the boulder to not roll down.
well, let's first notice, all our dimensions or measures must be using the same unit, so could convert the height to liters or the liters to centimeters, well hmm let's convert the volume of 1000 litres to cubic centimeters, keeping in mind that there are 1000 cm³ in 1 litre.
well, 1000 * 1000 = 1,000,000 cm³, so that's 1000 litres.
now, we could have included the "cm³ and cm" units for the volume as well as the height in the calculations, and their simplication will have been just the "cm" anyway.
