Answer:

The answer is B

every hour, Steve and Carl cover 60 miles

if they need to cover 180 miles it will take them 3 hours

you can set up a proportion

60/1=180x where x is the amount of hours Steve and Carl will drive to cover 180 miles.

proportion simplifies to this:

60x=180

isolate the varible

60x/60=180/60

x=3

Time = (distance) / (speed)

Time = (180 miles) / (60 mi/hr)

Time = (180/60) (mi-hr/mi)

<em>Time = 3 hours</em>

What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitational equilibrium? What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitation
JulijaS [17]

Question:

What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitational equilibrium?

A) the electromagnetic force and gravity

B) outward pressure and the strong force

C) outward pressure and inward gravity

D) the strong force and gravity

E) the strong force and kinetic energy

Answer:

The correct answer is C) Outward Pressure and Inward gravity                                                        

Explanation:

Gravitational equilibrium is a balance between the inward pull of gravity and the outward push of internal gas pressure. It also refers to the condition of a star in which the weight of overlying layers at each point is balanced by the total pressure at that point.

As the weight increases in the lower layers of the sun, the pressure also increases to maintain this balance.   So you find that the outward push of pressure balances the inward pull of gravity thus creating an equilibrium.

Why is gravitational equilibrium important?

The simple answer is <u>balance. </u> If for instance the sun as a stable star (which has gravitational equilibrium) loses it's balance, it becomes highly unstable and prone to violent outbursts. These outbursts are caused by the very high radiation pressure at the star's upper layers, which blows significant portions of the matter at the "surface" into space during eruptions that may rage for several years. Of course such a condition is adverse to the existence and support of life.

Cheers!

1<br> Verify the identity. Show your work.<br><br> cot θ ∙ sec θ = csc θ
Fittoniya [83]
To verify the identity, we can make use of the basic trigonometric identities:
cot θ = cos θ / sin θ 
sec θ = 1 / cos <span>θ
csc </span>θ = 1 / sin θ<span>

Using these identities:
</span>cot θ ∙ sec θ = (cos θ / sin θ ) (<span> 1 / cos </span><span>θ)
</span>
We can cancel out cos <span>θ, leaving us with
</span>cot θ ∙ sec θ = 1 / sin θ
cot θ ∙ sec θ = = csc <span>θ</span>

As shown in the diagram below, a rope attached to a 500.-kilogram crate is used to exert a force of 45 newtons at an angle of 65
kaheart [24]

Answer:

19.01 N

Explanation:

F = Force being applied to the crate = 45 N

\theta = Angle at which the force is being applied = 65^{\circ}

Horizontal component of force is given by

F_x=F\cos\theta\\\Rightarrow F_x=45\times \cos65^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow F_x=19.01\ \text{N}

The horizontal component of the force acting on the crate is 19.01 N.
