A uniform crate with a mass of 22 kg must be moved up along the 15° incline without tipping. The force P is horizontal. Determine the corresponding magnitude of force P.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a crate is 22 kg

It moved up along the 15 degrees incline without tipping.

We need to find the corresponding magnitude of force P. The force P is acting in horizontal direction.

It means that the horizontal component of force is given by :

So, the horizontal component of force is 208.25 N.

the old price per ounce is c/4.

the new price per ounce is c/3.6.

the ratio of the old price to the new one is

(c/4)/(c/3.6) = (c/c)×(3.6/4) = 0.9 . . = 9/10 . . "nine tenths" in either form
