The horizontal component of force is 5.47 lb

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given that a boy pulls his sled with a rope.

The rope makes an angle with horizontal = 70 degree

If a pull on the rope is needed to move the sled = 16 pounds

We need to find the horizontal component of force

In given scenario, the force used in this scenario is a vector addition of the horizontal and the vertical force component. The horizontal force component is calculated by multiplying the applied force by the cosine of the angle of the applied force from the horizontal plane in which it is found:                     horizontal force component = applied force x cos 70 degree

Horizontal component force = f \cos \alpha

Here, given applied force, f = 16 pounds

Then, horizontal component of force =  16 \cos 70^{\circ}

Horizontal component of force = 16×0.342

Hence, horizontal component of force = 5.47 lb

astraxan [27]

Answer:

a)0.6192

b)0.7422

c)0.8904

d)at least 151 sample is needed for 95% probability that sample mean falls within 8$ of the population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let z(p) be the z-statistic of the probability that the mean price for a sample is within the margin of error. Then

z(p)=\frac{ME*\sqrt{N}}{s } where

  • Me is the margin of error from the mean
  • s is the standard deviation of the population
  • N is the sample size

a.

z(p)=\frac{8*\sqrt{30}}{50 } ≈ 0.8764

by looking z-table corresponding p value is 1-0.3808=0.6192

b.

z(p)=\frac{8*\sqrt{50}}{50 } ≈ 1.1314

by looking z-table corresponding p value is 1-0.2578=0.7422

c.

z(p)=\frac{8*\sqrt{100}}{50 } ≈ 1.6

by looking z-table corresponding p value is 1-0.1096=0.8904

d.

Minimum required sample size for 0.95 probability is

N≥(\frac{z*s}{ME} )^2 where

  • N is the sample size
  • z is the corresponding z-score in 95% probability (1.96)
  • s is the standard deviation (50)
  • ME is the margin of error (8)

then N≥(\frac{1.96*50}{8} )^2 ≈150.6

Thus at least 151 sample is needed for 95% probability that sample mean falls within 8$ of the population mean.
