We calculate first for the normal force, Fn, which is equal to the product of the force and the cosine of the given angle,
                                         Fn = (15 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(cos 30°)
                                          Fn = 127.30 N
Then, to calculate for the Fg, we multiply the normal force by the given coefficient.
                                         Fg = (127.30 N)(0.15) = 19 N
The nearest value is letter A.

If one lawn mower causes an 80-dB sound level at a point nearby, four lawnmowers together would cause a sound level of _________
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The intensity of 4 lawn movers is 86 dB.

Explanation:

Intensity of one lawnmower = 80 dB

Let the intensity is I.

Use the formula of intensity

dB = 10 log\left ( \frac{I}{Io} \right )\\\\80=10log\left ( \frac{I}{Io} \right )\\\\10^8 = \frac{I}{10^{-12}}\\\\I = 10^{-4} W/m^2

Now the intensity of 4 lawn movers is

dB = 10 log\left ( \frac{4I}{Io} \right )\\\\dB=10log\left ( \frac{4\times10^{-4}}{10^{-12}} \right )\\\\dB = 86 dB\\

Suppose that the period of a particular ideal mass-spring system is 5 s . What would be the period of the system if the mass wer
yan [13]

Answer: T2 = 7.07s

Explanation: The period of a loaded spring of spring constant k and mass m is given by

T= 2π √m/k

With 2π constant and k, it can be seen with little algebra that

T² is proportional to mass m

Hence (T1)²/m1 = (T2) ²/m2

Where T1 = 5, T2 =?, let m1 = m hence m2 = 2m.

By substituting, we have that

5²/m = (T2) ²/2m

25 / m = (T2) ²/2m

25 × 2m = (T2) ² × m

25 × 2 = (T2) ²

50 = (T2) ²

T2 = √50

T2 = 7.07s

Given that the efficiency of heating your room is roughly 35%, what mass of natural gas is actually necessary to heat your room
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Mass of natural gas needed to heat the room is 350,000BTUs

Explanation:

The heating efficiency of a furnace is never 100% because not all energy is released and not all heat is available to heat the place. A lesser efficiency requires more consumption of fuel. Heating values are used for heating fuels in order to calculate the mass of fuel needed.

The heating value of natural gas is 1,000,000BTUs

Therefore the formular for calculating mass of natural gas needed= Heating value of natural gas×efficiency.

Mass=1,000,000×0.35

Mass=350,000BTUs

Danny sails a boat downstream. The wind pushes the boat along at 21 km/hr. The current runs downstream at 15 km/hr. What is the
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

36 km/h

Explanation:

The total velocity is the sum of the two velocities that add to the movement of the boat.

Since the wind pushes the boat at 21 km/h and the current that runs in the direction of the movent of the boat is 15 km/h, the total velocity at wich the boat moves is:

21km/h + 15 km/h = 36 km/h
