Answer: The car has a kinetic energy (because it's in motion) of: 
Explanation:
Answer:
1058.78 ft/sec
Explanation:
Horizontal Component of Velocity; This is the velocity of a body that act on the horizontal axis. I.e Velocity along x-axis
The horizontal velocity of a body can be calculated as shown below.\
Vh = Vcos∅.......................... Equation 1
Where Vh = horizontal component of the velocity, V = The velocity acting between the horizontal and the vertical axis, ∅ = Angle the velocity make with the horizontal.
Given: V = 1178 ft/sec, ∅ = 26°
Substitute into equation 1
Vh = 1178cos26
Vh = 1178(0.8988)
Vh = 1058.78 ft/sec
Hence the horizontal component of the velocity = 1058.78 ft/sec
(c) is the correct choice.
El Nino (a), Earth's orbit (b), and solar energy output (d) are all "natural" occurrences. You can't do a thing aboutum.
Fossil fuels ... or, more precisely, humanity's use of vast quantities of fossil fuels as a convenient source of huge quantities of energy ... and the subsequent increase of Carbon Dioxide in the planet's atmosphere, is not the result of "natural" processes. It's the result of human efforts to <em>alter and control</em> Nature, through <em>artificial</em> processes.
Nuclear fusion in the core tries to blow the star apart. Gravity holds it together. Whoever designed that system really knew what he was doing. I'm kinda grateful to him.
