It is usually to cover up some mistake or area of weakness. Sometimes it is to brag about something and make themselves look better.
Answer:
the first choice
Explanation:
The reason why it is the first choice is because you would need to experiment twice before concluding your experiment one has to be normal height and the second test has to be higher also the mass on the car also is a factor to the experiment.
True mechanical energy is the sum of potential and kinetic energies
Answer:
(15/17 = sin ∠ JLK)
(first option listed)
Explanation:
the "sin ∠ JLK" is what we can simply think of as the inside measurement of angle/corner L. (L is the letter in the middle of ∠ JLK , and if you imagine drawing a line from J to L to K, you would see that the only angle you formed both sides of is corner L)
so, we are looking for the sin of L.
(SOH CAH TOA)
we know that
sin = opposite / hypotenuse
However, we do not have the opposite value of this triangle <em>yet. </em>
-----
we can solve the length of the opposite side with the Pythagorean theorem:
a² + b² = c²
8² + b² = 17²
64 + b² = 289
- 64 - 64
b² = 225
√b² = √225
b = 15
----
so, to solve for sin L,
(sin = opposite / hypotenuse)
we should divide the opposite (15) over the hypotenuse (17)
so, 15 / 17 = sin L
(15/17 = sin ∠ JLK)
