Use a Calculator to Find the Function Value F\mathrm { F }

Question 181

Multiple Choice

Use a calculator to find the function value. Give your answer rounded to seven decimal places, if necessary.
-The grade resistance F\mathrm { F } of a car traveling up or down a hill is modeled by the equation F=Wsinθ\mathrm { F } = \mathrm { W } \sin \theta , where WW is the weight of the car and θ\theta is the angle of the hill's grade (θ>0( \theta > 0 for uphill travel, θ<0\theta < 0 for downhill travel) . What is the grade resistance (to the nearest pound) of a 2100-lb car traveling downhill on a 55 ^ { \circ } grade (θ=5) \left( \theta = - 5 ^ { \circ } \right) ?


A) 183lb183 \mathrm { lb }
B) 183lb- 183 \mathrm { lb }
C) 2105lb- 2105 \mathrm { lb }
D) 2105lb2105 \mathrm { lb }
