For this problem, I think there is no need for the details of 12 inches width and 4 inches length. This is because an equation is already given. It was clearly specified that A as a function of θ represents the area of the opening. Then, we are asked to find exactly that: the area of opening. Moreover, the value of θ was also given. Therefore, I am quite sure that the initial details given are for the purpose of red herring only.
So, all we have to do is substitute θ=45° to the function given.
A = 16 sin 45° ⋅ (cos 45° + 1)
The angle 45° is a special angle in trigonometry. So, it would be easy to remember trigonometric functions of this angle. Sine of 45° is equal to √2/2 while cosine of 45° is also √2/2.
A = 16(√2/2) ⋅ (√2/2 + 1)
A = 8+8√2
A = 19.31 square inches
Answer:
The sports car, because it has less mass and therefore less inertia
Step-by-step explanation:
When an object has less inertia it is easier to be put into and out of motion, and a sports car would obviously weigh less than a van.
We use the formula
L = rθ
where s is the arc length or the length of the wire
r is the distance from the center to the end of the rod
θ is the angle made by the rod with the wall
Substituting the values and converting the angle to radian measure
L = 4 (40°) (π/180°)
L = 2.79 feet<span />
<span>The control box’s dimensions are 30 inches by 25 inches. Therefore, the perimeter of the box is 30 inches + 25 inches + 30 inches + 25 inches = 110 inches. There are 12 inches per foot. 12 goes into 110 nine times, with two inches left over. Therefore, 9 feet and 2 inches of weatherstripping is needed.</span>
