The quadriceps pulls on the patella with a force of 1000 N while the patellar tendon also pulls on the patella with a force of 1000 N. The knee is in a flexed position, so the angle between these two forces is 120°. A compressive force from the femoral condyles is the only other significant force acting on the patella. If the patella is in static equilibrium, how large is the compressive force exerted by the femoral condyles on the patella?

The temperature in gavin's oven is a sinusoidal function of time. gavin sets his oven so that it has a maximum temperature of 280°f and a minimum temperature of 240°. once the temperature hits 280°, it takes 20 minutes before it is 280° again. gavin's cake needs to be in the oven for 30 minutes at temperatures at or above 270°. he puts the cake into the oven when it is at 260° and rising. how long will gavin need to leave the cake in the oven? (round your answer to the nearest minute.)
