Answer:

Their contact will end after 2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let east be positive and west be negative.

The first team travels east at 20 miles per hour.

Speed of first team = 20 mph

The second team travels west at 25 mph

Speed of second team = -25 mph

Relative speed = 20- (-25) = 45 mph

Range of radio = 90 miles

We need to find how long will it be before they lose radio contact.

           Distance = Time x Speed

            90 = Time x 45

            Time = 2 hours

Their contact will end after 2 hours.

A car is on a driveway that is inclined 10 degrees to the horizontal. A force of 490 lb is required to keep the car from rolling
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

a) weight  of the car = 2816,1 lbs

b) 2773 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The equilibrium force is 490 lbs. That force keep the car at rest, then

∑ Fy  =  0     and  ∑Fx  =  0

Forces acting on the car:

The external force   490 lbs

weight of the car   uknown

Normal force

sin∠10°  =  0,174

cos∠10° = 0.985

∑Fx  =  0         mg*sin10°- 490 = 0      ∑Fy =  0      mg*cos10° - N  =  0

mg*0,174= 490

mg  =  490 / 0,174

mg = 2816,1 lbs

weight  of the car = 2816,1 lbs

The Normal force

mg*cos10° - N  =  0        2816,1 * 0,985 = N

N = 2773 lbs

Then equal force in magnitude and in opposite direction will car exets on the driveway
