I need a step-by-step process of how to solve this I know the answer but I need to know exactly how to solve these kinds of ques

tions so I know how to do it for a test:
A large ship is being towed by two tugs. The larger tug exerts a force which is 25 percent greater than the smaller tug, and at an angle of 30 degrees south of west.
Which direction must the smaller tug pull to ensure that the ship travels due west?

So what we know from that is that angle is 30 degrees south of west. so you go 30 degrees down from west. How can we do this? well <span>basically what you have to do is to break down the force into x and y component. The y component of large force and the y component of small force should cancel so that the boat doesn't go north and south and the x components of both the forces should add up so that it goes west only.</span>

Answer:

259.6 ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

it is a universal standard that acceleration due to gravity is 32ft/sec^2.

Now it can be verified by equation,

V(f) = V(i)+at (1st equation of motion derived by Newton's three laws of motion)

where,

V(f) is final velocity

V(i) is initial velocity

a is acceleration which is constant and have value 32ft/sec^2

t is time which is given as 7.8 seconds

In the given case, initial velocity that is V(i) will be 0ft/sec. Because, on dropping, object will start to move under the influence of gravity from zero speed.

So,

V(f) = 0 +(32) (7.8)

V(f) = 249.6 ft/sec

Now the condition is given that you have to add a constant 10 to the answer.

so, V(f) = 249.6 + 10

      V(f) = 259.6 ft/sec

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

  35% chose baseball or soccer

Step-by-step explanation:

  baseball or soccer = 20% + 15% = 35%

_____

The categories add to 100%, so are mutually exclusive, as you expect when they are "favorite sport" categories. Hence the union of two of them will be their sum. (Otherwise, you'd have to subtract the amount by which the categories overlap.)
