Answer:
The mass of each passenger is 550 kg.
The mass of front decoration is 200 Kg.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A roller coaster train with 6 passenger cars and the front decoration has a mass of 3500 kg. when the train has the front decoration and only 4 passenger cars, it has a mass of 2400 kg.
To find : What is the mass of the decoration and of each passenger car?
Solution :
Let the mass of each passenger is x.
Let the mass of front decoration is y.
- When the number of passenger = 6
Mass of 6 passengers and front decoration = 3500 kg.
The equation form is ..........[1]
- When the number of passengers = 4
Mass of 4 passengers and front decoration = 2400 kg.
The equation form is ........[2]
Solving equation [1] and [2]
Subtract equation [2] from [1],
Put value in [1],
Therefore, The mass of each passenger is 550 kg.
The mass of front decoration is 200 Kg.
Answer:
16.2 m
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can draw a picture. The cable goes from the top of the pole to the ground (with the pole on the right in my drawing), and the point on the ground is 10 m away from the base of the pole. This forms a right triangle, with the right angle being between the 10 m distance and the pole itself. We can then apply the Pythagorean Theorem, so
a²+b²=c², with c being the side opposite the right angle (the cable), getting us
10²+(length of pole)² = 19²
19²-10²=(length of pole)²
= 261
square root both sides to isolate the length of the pole
length of pole ≈ 16.2 m
