inclined at a degrees from the horizontal.
Find Gif W=5,100 pounds and o= 31º.
2624.7 lb
2626.7 lb

Answer 1

Answer:

(b) 2626.7 lb  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$W = 5100\ lb$

$\theta = 31$

Required

Determine the horizontal pounds (G)

This is calculated using:

$G = Wsin\theta$

$G = 5100 * sin(31^\circ)$

$G = 5100 * 0.5150$

$G = 2626.5$

(b) 2626.7 lb  answers the question
