One end of a 4ft iron rod is attached to the center of a pulley with radius of 0.5 ft. The other end is attached at a 40 degree

angle to a wall, at a spot 6ft above the lower end of a steel wire supporting a box. The other end of the wire comes out of the wall straight across from the top of the pulley. Find the length L of the wire from the wall to the box.
P.S this deals with radian measure.

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 />

There are 28.35 grams in an ounce and 2.21 pounds in a kilogram. Miriam converted 7 kilograms to ounces, but her answer is not c

sergejj [24]

Answer: OPTION C.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to remember the following:

$1\ kilogram=1,000\ grams$

Knowing this and based on the information provided in the exercise, you can make the conversion from kilograms to ounces. This is:

$(7\ Kg)(\frac{1,000\ gr}{1\ Kg})(\frac{1\ oz}{28.35\ gr})=246.913\ oz$

According to the exercise, Miriam's procedure was:

$(7\ Kg)(\frac{1,000\ gr}{1\ Kg})(\frac{28.35\ gr}{1\ oz})= 198,450\ oz$

So you can identify that she made a mistake.

Notice that:

1. Miriaim multiplied correctly.

2. Butt the third fraction should be $\frac{1\ oz}{28.35\ gr}$ and not $\frac{28.35\ gr}{1\ oz}$ .

The harmonic motion of a particle is given by f(t) = 2 cos(3t) + 3 sin(2t), 0 ≤ t ≤ 8. (a) When is the position function decreas

iren [92.7K]

For the last part, you have to find where $f'(t)$ attains its maximum over $0\le t\le8$ . We have

$f'(t)=-6\sin3t+6\cos2t$

so that

$f''(t)=-18\cos3t-12\sin2t$

with critical points at $t$ such that

$-18\cos3t-12\sin2t=0$

$3\cos3t+2\sin2t=0$

$3(\cos^3t-3\cos t\sin^2t)+4\sin t\cos t=0$

$\cos t(3\cos^2t-9\sin^2t+4\sin t)=0$

$\cos t(12\sin^2t-4\sin t-3)=0$

So either

$\cos t=0\implies t=\dfrac{(2n+1)\pi}2$

or

$12\sin^2t-4\sin t-3=0\implies\sin t=\dfrac{1\pm\sqrt{10}}6\implies t=\sin^{-1}\dfrac{1\pm\sqrt{10}}6+2n\pi$

where $n$ is any integer. We get 8 solutions over the given interval with $n=0,1,2$ from the first set of solutions, $n=0,1$ from the set of solutions where $\sin t=\dfrac{1+\sqrt{10}}6$ , and $n=1$ from the set of solutions where $\sin t=\dfrac{1-\sqrt{10}}6$ . They are approximately

$\dfrac\pi2\approx2$

$\dfrac{3\pi}2\approx5$

$\dfrac{5\pi}2\approx8$

$\sin^{-1}\dfrac{1+\sqrt{10}}6\approx1$

$2\pi+\sin^{-1}\dfrac{1+\sqrt{10}}6\approx7$

$2\pi+\sin^{-1}\dfrac{1-\sqrt{10}}6\approx6$
