Answer:

In a right triangle, you always want to use the right angle as a reference. Sin is opposite side over hypotenuse, and cos is adjacent side over hypotenuse. An easy way to remember is SOHCAHTOA (Sin Opposite Hypotenuse, Cos Adjacent Hypotenuse, Tan Opposite Adjacent), The acronym I use to remember this is "Some old hippy caught another hippy tripping on acid."

Answer:this is all i can give you

Explanation:

1.The sine of the angle = the length of the opposite side. the length of the hypotenuse.

2.The cosine of the angle = the length of the adjacent side. the length of the hypotenuse.

3.The tangent of the angle = the length of the opposite side. the length of the adjacent side.

A Ferris wheel on a California pier is 27 m high and rotates once every 32 seconds in the counterclockwise direction. When the w

A) 140 degrees

First of all, we need to find the angular velocity of the Ferris wheel. We know that its period is

T = 32 s

So the angular velocity is

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{32 s}=0.20 rad/s

Assuming the wheel is moving at constant angular velocity, we can now calculate the angular displacement with respect to the initial position:

\theta= \omega t

and substituting t = 75 seconds, we find

\theta= (0.20 rad/s)(75 s)=15 rad

In degrees, it is

15 rad: x = 2\pi rad : 360^{\circ}\\
x=\frac{(15 rad)(360^{\circ})}{2\pi}=860^{\circ} = 140^{\circ}

So, the new position is 140 degrees from the initial position at the top.

B) 2.7 m/s

The tangential speed, v, of a point at the egde of the wheel is given by

v=\omega r

where we have

\omega=0.20 rad/s

r = d/2 = (27 m)/2=13.5 m is the radius of the wheel

Substituting into the equation, we find

v=(0.20 rad/s)(13.5 m)=2.7 m/s

Why doesn’t a machine that increases force break the law of conservation of energy?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

A machine in which work input equals work output. energy can be used to do work, work can be used to transfer energy. The change in the kinetic energy of an object is equal to the net work done on the object.

hope this helps

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, we emphasize performance over participation of kids in a competition which causes negative effect on kid's personality. We also prefer those children whose families can afford the fees which is our big failure. We should  emphasize participation over performance and prefer those child who has the ability to win the game instead of those who can afford the fees.
