The total number of snowstorms is 60.

If 65% caused power outages, then the 21 storms that didn't represent 35% because 65%+35%=100%. You can set up a proportion (35/100=21/?) and use cross multiplication to find the total number of snowstorms. So, 21x100=2,100 and then 2,100 divided by 35 is 60.

The position-time graph of an object is shown below. What is the velocity of the object when time t = 2.5 seconds
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer: 2 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The position time graph shown above has position or distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis. The unit of the distance is in metes and the unit of the time is in seconds.

Distance = velocity / time

Time = distance × time

From the graph, the slope at any point determines the velocity of the object at that point.

Slope =( y2 -y1)/ ( x2 -x1)

y2 = 5(corresponding to the point on the vertical axis where t = 2.5 on the horizontal meets the plotted line when traced along the vertical axis)

y 1 = 0 (initial distance)

x2 = 2.5( on the horizontal axis)

x1 = 0(initial time)

Velocity = slope = (5-0)/2.5-0)= 5/2.5

= 2 m/s

A guy wire anchors down a wind turbine. The anchor for the wire is 93 m away from the base of the turbine, and it connects to th
vredina [299]

Answer: 68.49^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The anchor for the wire is 93 m away from the base of the turbine.

It connects to the turbine 236 m above the ground.

Let x be the angle of elevation for the guy wire

By trigonometry,

\tan x=\frac{\text{side opposite to x}}{\text{side adjacent to x}}\\\Rightarrow\ \tan x=\frac{236}{93}\\\Rightarrow\ x=\tan^{-1}(\frac{236}{93})\\\Rightarrow\ x=\tan^{-1}(2.5376)\\\Rightarrow\ x=1.195\ radians \\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.195\times\frac{180^{\circ}}{\pi}=68.49219\approx68.49^{\circ}
