Find the value of x, rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

x= 36.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Because that's a right triangle and the reference angle and adjacent side measures are given to us, we can use the trig ratio for cosine.  Cosine relates the side adjacent to (next to...NOT ever the hypotenuse!) the angle to the hypotenuse.  Therefore, our equation will look like this:

cos(28)=\frac{32}{x}

Solving for x we have

x=\frac{32}{cos(28)}

Perform that operation on your calculator in degree mode and you'll get that the length of the hypotenuse is 36.2.  If for some reason, your math gave you the length of the hypotenuse and it was shorter than one of the other sides, you did something wrong.  The hypotenuse will ALWAYS be the longest side in a right triangle.

Arlecino [84]
Surface area of a sphere is  4 times pi timers radius^2
aprox pi=3.14

so surface area=145,000,000

145,000,000=4 times 3.14 times rdaius^2
145,000,000=12.56 times radius^2
divide both sdies by 12.56
11544585.987=r^2
square root both sides
3397.73=radius

round to the hundreds

/Velocity and displacement an time

Question 17: True

Question 18: False

Question 19: True

Question 20: Cumulus

Step-by-step explanation:

The force applied moves the object in the direction of the force. Suppose if the force is applied to the moving object in that case object moves in the direction of the stronger force. Thus, according to the given question the applied force moves the object in its direction

Work is when there is energy that is exerted throughout an object using force and action. Which displaces the measure of the force and the application of that specific action.

Given:  

Force applied F = 50 N  

Distance s = 15 m  

Find:  

Work done W  

Computation:  

Work done W = Force x distance  

Work done W = 50 x 15  

Work done W = 750 J

A Pair of tweezers is an example of a Third Class lever. The force is applied in the middle of the tweezers which causes a force at the tips of the tweezers. The fulcrum is where the two halves of the tweezers are joined together.   Whereas a pair of scissors and a pair of pliers is an example of a first class lever.

Power is the rate of using energy or the rate of doing work. Basically, any units of energy (or work) and time can be used to generate a unit of power and can be computed as Work/time. Watt is the standard metric unit of power.

We can use a case scenario to illustrate what Power is. If you take a book and lift it a meter high, you will end up doing the same amount of work regardless of whether you lift the book slowly or quickly. However, you can increase your power which is the rate of doing work when you lift the book quickly.

Power (P) is the rate at which energy is transferred or converted. Thus, power equals work divided by time (P = W / t). The SI unit of power is the watt (W), in honor of Scottish inventor James Watt (1736 - 1819)

energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion is kinetic

Kinetic energy is when an object has the power to move, Potential energy would be when its resting on the shelf.

Earth is surrounded by invisible gases that form a thin protective blanket that we call the atmosphere. It contains the oxygen that we breath as well as other important gases such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, water vapor, and ozone.

The permanent gases whose percentages do not change from day to day are nitrogen, oxygen and argon. Nitrogen accounts for 78% of the atmosphere, oxygen 21% and argon 0.9%. Gases like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxides, methane, and ozone are trace gases that account for about a tenth of one percent of the atmosphere.

Weather maps show these areas using a large “H” to areas bring fair weather with clear skies, while Low pressure brings stormy weather and clouds.

Cumulus clouds look like fluffy, white cotton balls in the sky. They are beautiful in sunsets, and their varying sizes and shapes can make them fun to observe! Stratus cloud often look like thin, white sheets covering the whole sky.
