A wood block, after being given a starting push, slides down a wood ramp at a constant speed. What is the angle of the ramp above horizontal? The fact that there aren't any numbers involved here and a certain angle is required confuses me. I know it invol...

It's still confusing me...200mph-50 gives us 150mph but how do i know the angle of that vector? I know it's South of East...

nevermind! got it! thanks!

thank you for helping but this is exactly my problem. That is all the information given and we have to fill in a value and units blank. When i have countlessly tried to put in tangent in any way possible, a message pops up: "Use either an integer, decimal...

I have just recently had to answer a very similar question. My prof. has given me the two general eqns to use: Y(final)=Y(initial)+V(initial)((T(final)-T(initial))+1/2a(T(final)-T(initial))^2 and V(final)=V(initial)+a(T(final)-T(initial)) From there, writ...

It's the homework system--it's all online. I can figure out the questions with numbers but this one has me stumped. Thanks anyways, maybe there's a glitch in the system or something...

Use the proper order of operations: PEMDAS from left to right, do parenthasis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, then subtraction. since you only have division and addition, divide your numbers first, then lastly add.

wow i'm tired...you're adding fractions...forget what i said. i apologize!
