<span>The person is dragging
with a force of 58 lbs at an angle of 27 degrees relating to the ground. We
want to use cosine function to look for the horizontal force component. And
then we can compute for W = (Horizontal Force) x (Distance). We want the
horizontal force component since that is the component that is parallel to the
direction the cart is moving. </span><span>
(cos 27 degrees)(58 lbs) = 51.69 lbs (This is the horizontal
force component.)
W = (51.69 lbs) x (70 ft) = 3618.3 ft*lbs</span>
Explanation:
The shorter wavelength electromagnetic waves from sun are absorbed by earth material in form of short wavelength and the radiated wavelength are longer ones. Also higher energy waves are of shorter wavelength and lower energy waves have longer wavelength. So, they are absorbed as short wavelength and radiated back as long wavelength.
We will apply the Newton's second Law so the we will be able to find the acceleration.
F (tot) = ma
a = F(tot) / m
a = 32.0 N / 65.0 kg = 0.492 m/s^2
Approximately 0.492 m/s^2 is her initial acceleration if she is initially stationary and wearing steel-bladed skates.
