Answer:

The work done on the box is 69.28 ft-lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Work done = force × height

Force (F) = 10 pounds

The height (h) is calculated using trigonometric ratio

Length of ramp (hypotenuse side) = 8 feet

Angle of inclination above the horizontal = 30°

h/8 = cos 30°

h = 8cos 30° = 8×0.8660 = 6.928 feet

Work done = F×h = 10 pounds × 6.928 feet = 69.28 ft-lb

Pls help<br><br> Given: △ABC, CM⊥ AB, BC = 5, AB = 7<br> CA = 4 sqrt(2)<br> Find: CM
babymother [125]

Answer:

The general plan is to find BM and from that CM. You need 2 equations to do that.

Step One

Set up the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2 = (4*sqrt(2) ) ^ 2 = 32

BM^2 + CM^2 = 5^2 = 25

Step Two

Subtract the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2  = 32

BM^2 + CM^2         = 25

(7 - BM)^2 - BM^2 = 7               (3)

Step three

Expand the left side of the new equation labeled (3)

49 - 14BM + BM^2 - BM^2 = 7    

Step 4

Simplify And Solve

49 - 14BM = 7              Subtract 49 from both sides.

-49 - 14BM = 7 - 49

- 14BM = - 42              Divide by - 14

BM = -42 / - 14

BM = 3

Step  Five

Find CM

CM^2 + BM^2 = 5^2

CM^2 + 3^2 = 5^2        Subtract 3^2 from both sides.

CM^2 = 25 - 9            

CM^2 = 16                     Take the square root of both sides.        

sqrt(CM^2) = sqrt(16)

CM = 4    < Answer
