Answer:

a) the values of the angle α is 45.5°

b) the required magnitude of the vertical force, F is 41 lb

Explanation:

Applying the free equilibrium equation along x-direction

from the diagram

we say

∑Fₓ = 0

Pcosα - 425cos30° = 0

525cosα - 368.06 = 0

cosα = 368.06/525

cosα = 0.701

α = cos⁻¹ (0.701)

α = 45.5°

Also Applying the force equation of motion along y-direction

∑Fₓ = ma

Psinα + F + 425sin30° - 600 = (600/32.2)(1.5)

525sin45.5° + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

374.46 + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

F - 13.04 = 27.95

F = 27.95 + 13.04

F = 40.99 ≈ 41 lb

Alchen [17]
So 10 gallons of gas would let you travel 300 Miles. 

x gallons = 50 Miles

10 : 300 :: x : 50 

x = 500/300

x = 1.66667 gallons. 

So, the car would run 10 - 1.6666 gallons = 8.33 gallons.

After that, the warning light turns ON! 

Hope this helps!!
