Truck brakes can fail if they get too hot. In some mountainous areas, ramps of loose gravel are constructed to stop runaway truc

ks that have lost their brakes. The combination of a slight upward slope and a large coefficient of rolling friction as the truck tires sink into the gravel brings the truck safely to a halt. Suppose a gravel ramp slopes upward at 6.0∘ and the coefficient of rolling friction is 0.30. How long the ramp should be to stop a truck of 15000 kg having a speed of 35 m/s.

Kinetic engery = -1/2mv^2

Work = Fd

Combine:

-1/2mv^2 - Fd = 0

-1/2mv^2 = (0.30*15000*9.81*cos(6))d = 0

Multiply both sides by 2:

v^2 = 2d(0.30*9.81*cos(6))

Solve for d:

d=v^2 / 2(0.30*9.81*cos96))

v = speed:

d = 35^2 / 2*0.30 * 9.81 * cos(6)

d = 1225 / 5.85376

d = 209.27 meters. Round answer as needed.

Hello the question is in the picture ( only C)

SOLUTION:

A normal distribution would model this situation because the distribution is approximately symmetrical, thus the mean, median and mode are approximately the same and the population size is large ( greater than 30).

Say if the Earth rotates 1.25 degrees in 5 mintues. But a classmate wants to find out how many degrees the Earth can rotate in 2
givi [52]

Her error was dividing them by 2 she would place 1.25 over 5 then divide by 5 to get the unit rate per minute then multiply the quotient by 2 to get the rate of degrees moved for 2 minutes which is .5  or .50 degrees every two minutes.

Solve this and get 12 points
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find <em>x</em>. Since <em>x</em> is the average of the three number, add the three up and then divided by three. Thus:

x=\frac{13+-16+6}{3}=3/3=1

<em>y</em> is the cube root of 8. Thus:

y=\sqrt[3]{8}=2

So:

x^2+y^3\\=(1)^2+(2)^3\\=1+8=9

selena walks home to school each mm morning and back home each afternoon. altogether she walks 2/3 mile wach day. how far does s
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:



One days trip of to school from home and back home from school is 2/3 of a mile. We want to know how far it is to school from her house.

To solve this, we simply need to take half of the total distance (2/3)

\frac{2}{3} / 2

Next, we need to turn the 2 into a fraction. Every whole number can be made into a fraction by putting it over 1.

\frac{2}{3} / \frac{2}{1}

Because we are dividing, we need to invert the second fraction and then multiply.

\frac{2}{3} * \frac {1}{2}

Next, we multiply the top of the first fraction by the top of the second and the bottom of the first fraction by the bottom of the second.

\frac{2}{6}

Once you reduce, you get:

\frac{1}{3}
