A line from second to home creates a right triangle with 45 degree angles.

This makes the diagonal line the side length of the square multiplied by the sqrt(2)

Second to home = 90sqrt(2) = 127.279 feet ( round answer as needed)

The central angle of a circle is 360° or 2π radians.

Therefore
1 radian = (360 degrees)/(2π radians) = 180/π degrees/radian.
4 radians = (4 radians)*(180/π degrees/radian) = 229.18 degrees.

Answer: C.  229.2°

While on a playground, you and your niece take turns sliding down a frictionless slide. Your mass is 75 kg while your little nie
Olenka [21]

Answer:

c.

Explanation:

  • In absence of friction, total mechanical energy must be conserved.
  • This means that the change in gravitational potential energy (in magnitude) must be equal to the change in kinetic energy:

       \Delta K = \Delta U \\ \\  \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2}  = m*g*h

  • As it can be seen, the mass m is on the both sides of the equation, which means that it can be simplified.
  • We can solve this equation for v (speed at the bottom) as follows:

        v = \sqrt{2*g*h}

  • As it can be seen, the mass has no part in the equation, so, due both are starting from the same height, both people have the same speed at the bottom.
  • The option c is the right one.
