Either 175 N or 157 N depending upon how the value of 48° was measured from.
You didn't mention if the angle of 48° is from the lug wrench itself, or if it's from the normal to the lug wrench. So I'll solve for both cases and you'll need to select the desired answer.
Since we need a torque of 55 N·m to loosen the nut and our lug wrench is 0.47 m long, that means that we need 55 N·m / 0.47 m = 117 N of usefully applied force in order to loosen the nut. This figure will be used for both possible angles.
Ideally, the force will have a 0° degree difference from the normal and 100% of the force will be usefully applied. Any value greater than 0° will have the exerted force reduced by the cosine of the angle from the normal. Hence the term "cosine loss".
If the angle of 48° is from the normal to the lug wrench, the usefully applied power will be:
U = F*cos(48)
where
U = Useful force
F = Force applied
So solving for F and calculating gives:
U = F*cos(48)
U/cos(48) = F
117 N/0.669130606 = F
174.8537563 N = F
So 175 Newtons of force is required in this situation.
If the 48° is from the lug wrench itself, that means that the force is 90° - 48° = 42° from the normal. So doing the calculation again (this time from where we started plugging in values) we get
U/cos(42) = F
117/0.743144825 = F
157.4390294 = F
Or 157 Newtons is required for this case.
To calculate force, use the formula force equals mass times acceleration, or F = m × a. Make sure that the mass measurement you're using is in kilograms and the acceleration is in meters over seconds squared. When you've solved the equation, the force will be measured in Newtons.
Answer:
The moon has no atmosphere
Explanation:
The temperatures on the surface of the Moon vary much more than those on Earth because the moon has no atmosphere (third answer in the list), and therefore there are no molecules that could retain residual heat and make the change from day to night a softer transition.
do not forget to change grams to kilograms and if it were in centimeters convert them to meters.
