Answer:

99.63 kg

Explanation:

From the force diagram

N = normal force on the worker from the surface of the roof

f = static frictional force = 560 N

θ = angle of the slope = 35

m = mass of the worker

W = weight of the worker = mg

W Cosθ = Component of the weight of worker perpendicular to the surface of roof

W Sinθ = Component of the weight of worker parallel to the surface of roof

From the force diagram, for the worker not to slip, force equation must be

W Sinθ = f

mg Sinθ = f

m (9.8) Sin35 = 560

m = 99.63 kg

Answer:

x=7227

y=1678

(7227,1678)

Explanation:

Ok, check the picture I attached you, because of the problem don't give us aditional information, let's asume that the projectile is fired from an initial position x=0 and y=0. Now let's use projectile motion equations, but firs let's find the initial velocity components in x-axis and y-axis:

v_ox=v_o*cos(\theta_o)=300*cos(55)=172.0729309m/s

v_oy=v_o*sin(\theta_o)=300*sin(55)=245.7456133m/s

Now, let's find the x coordinate with this equation:

x-x_o=x-0=x=v_ox*t=172.0729309*42=7227.063098m

Finally asumming a gravity constant g=9.8, let's find the y coordinate with the next equation:

y-y_o=y-0=y=v_oy*t-\frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2} =(245.7456133*42)-\frac{42^{2} *9.8}{2}

y=10321.31576-8643.6=1677.71576m

Explanation:

Some factors of heart disease cannot be controlled. A diet rich in high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) can help cleanse and open arteries that are clogged with plaque. Exercise can help prevent heart disease but once you've had a heart attack, it's too late for exercise to help you.
