Answer:

17. h = l − l cos θ

18. 1.40 m

Explanation:

Let's call d the height of the triangle. We can then say:

h = l − d

Using trig, we can write d in terms of l and θ:

d = l cos θ

h = l − l cos θ

If l = 6 m and l cos θ = 40°:

h = 6 − 6 cos 40

h ≈ 1.40

How do i figure out this question?

Answer:

0.75 g/cm^3

Explanation:

The formula for density:

$\rho = \frac{m}{V}$

Where m is the mass and V is the volume.

So, we can substitute values for m and V:

$\rho = \frac{277}{370}\approx0.75$

Therefore, the density is 0.75 g/cm^3 (watch the units!)

Aliun [14]

Answer:570.54 N

Explanation:

Given

mass of man=76 kg

$\theta =50^{\circ}$

As man is standing over inclined building therefore

its weight has two components i.e. sin and cos component

Force perpendicular to inclined wall

$F=mgcos\theta =76\times 9.8\times \sin 50$

F=570.54 N
