Answer:

This value is less than the maximum tension of 500 lbs, making it safe for man to go to the tip flap

Explanation:

We must work on this problem using the rotational equilibrium equations and then they compared the tension values that the cable supports.

Let's start with fixing a reference system on the hinge of the flag, we take as positive the anti-clockwise turn

They indicate the weight of the pole W₁ = 120 lb and a length of L = 9 ft, the weight of the man W₂ = 150, we assume that the cable is at the tip of the pole

- $T_{y}$ L + W₂ L + W₁ L / 2 = 0

T_{y} = W₂ + W₁ / 2

T_{y} = 120 + 150/2

T_{y} = 195 lb

we use trigonometry to find the cable tension

sin 30 = T_{y} / T

T = T_{y} / sin 30

T = 195 / sin 30

T = 390 lb

This value is less than the maximum tension of 500 lbs, making it safe for man to go to the tip flap

T < 500 lb

Some of the fastest dragsters (called "top fuel) do not race for more than 300-400m for safety reasons. Consider such a dragster

Masja [62]

Answer:

1.10261 times g

416.17506 mph

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 400=0\times 8.6+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 8.6^2\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{400\times 2}{8.6^2}\\\Rightarrow a=10.81665\ m/s^2$

Dividing by g

$\dfrac{a}{g}=\dfrac{10.81665}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{a}{g}=1.10261\\\Rightarrow a=1.10261g$

The acceleration is 1.10261 times g

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 10.81665\times 1.6\times 10^3+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=186.04644\ m/s$

In mph

$186.04644\times \dfrac{3600}{1609.34}=416.17506\ mph$

The speed of the dragster is 416.17506 mph

The number of gallons of water in a storage tank at time t, in minutes, is modeled by w(t) = 25 − t2 for 0≤t≤5. At what rate, in

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Rate of change of water will be -6 gallon/minute

Explanation:

We have given water in the tank as the function of time as

$w(t)=25-t^2$

We have to find the rate of change of water in the tank at t = 3 minute

For rate of change we have to differentiate both side

So $\frac{dw}{dt}=0-2t$

At t = 3 minute

$\frac{dw}{dt}=0-2\times 3=-6gallon/minute$

Which of the following best describes the dependant variable?

weeeeeb [17]

Hello!

The independent variable is the variable deliberately changed.

The dependent variable is the variable that responds to change. So the answer is A.

Hope this helps. Any questions please just ask! Thank you!
