Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

Length. L = 12 m

Width, W = 16 m

Area, A = 12 x 16 = 192 m^2

Let the width of pavement be d.

The new length, L' = 12 + 2d

the new width, W' = 16 + 2d  

New Area, A' = L' x W' = (12 + 2d)(16 + 2d) = 192 + 56 d + 4d^2

Difference in area = A' - A

285 =  192 + 56 d + 4d^2 - 192

93 =  56 d + 4d^2

4d^2 + 56 d - 93 = 0

d = \frac{-56\pm \sqrt{56^{2}+4\times 4\times 93}}{8}

d=\frac{-56\pm 87.72}{8}\

d = 1.5 m

Thus, the width of the pavement is 1.5 m.

A block lies on a plane raised an angle θ from the horizontal. Three forces act upon the block: F⃗ w, the force of gravity; F⃗ n
Verdich [7]

Answer:

YFy = 0 = Ffsinθ + Fncosθ - Fw

Explanation:

From the base of the vector Fn, draw a vertical line. the small angle between this line and Fn is also theta. The component of Fn in the vertical direction is Fncos(theta).

Take a moment to picture extreme cases. Sine is 0 at 0 and 1 at 90. Cosine is 1 at 0 and 0 at 90.

What combination of variables will make an experiment the most reliable
Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

A combination of two controlled variables will make an experiment the most reliable.

Variables are the values that we take under any circumstance while doing an experiment so that we can keep on changing  and get new results at the end.

It is important to have them in pair so that two values can be kept on changing in terms of any constant condition. This will help to get better results in over all experiment data.
