A passenger is pulling on the strap of a 15.0kg suitcase with a force of 70.0N. The strap makes an angle of 35 degrees above the horizontal. A 37.8N friction force opposes the horizontal motion of the suitcase. Determine the acceleration of the suitcase.

I'm okay with most force questions, but I have no idea what to do with the angle.

I live in a village in North Yorkshire, UK.

Every day vehicles tear through the village despite a 30 mph limit.

The County Council did a traffic survey showing 70% of vehicles passing through the village do so breaking the speed limit. They have known about this for over a year, they have done nothing and do not reply to emails.

THE POLICE have had copies of the report, know of the law breaking every day, do nothing and dont reply to emails.

My County Councillor has not even replied to my emails.

In the last 12 months numerous accidents have happened with vehicles travelling too fast and leaving the road.

Children walk up and down the road (without a footpath)to get the school bus.

Pedestrians have to walk in the road.

THE POLICE,COUNTY COUNCIL AND COUNTY COUNCILLOR have individually and collectively done NOTHING to sort this out and have shown nothing but apathy.


WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

I mean one hellacious, knee-walking, hugging the marble maiden, tie one on, godawful, drunken brawl/party over a weekend, hedonistic, slobering, puke in the punch bowl mess, to get some things hashed out. I don't think we could end up any worse than what we got now. Maybe we could get ol' Hugh Hefner to host the damn thing. Just get 'em all together and turn 'em lose. What the hell? your thoughts?

there sense of humor is equal to that of a book keeper or an accountant, why can't they just relax with themselves and enjoy life a lot more by laughing at themselves now and then and not be so serious about every little thing?

I'm 24, and this menstruation seems not being menstruation at all, i counted once, it came only about 4~5 times every year, and sometimes it cramps like hell, I think my diet is pretty normal, I just don't eat red meat, maybe mental pressure is a little higher.

And I'm a coffee addict...it seems impossible to quit... I wonder, If someday I want to have a child, will I be sterilized?

I have 6 years old daughter. She used to call me more than 5 times a day when I am at work. It was ok at first but I felt bad to my other friends who share this room with me. I told her to call me to my cellphone but she still call me to my office phone. How to explain it to her without hurting her feeling. I know she just miss me. Tq

we started watching a movie about a teacher who helps inner city school kids. Once she realises what movie it is she gets up and says:

She says....I am sick of movies made about white teachers saving poor black kids. Then goes to her bedroom.

This movie was a true story. There are stories about black school teachers helping kids too. The first I know about is one where Sidney Potier plays a teacher in a school of all white kids. There was another one where a black principle completely turned his school around where both black and white kids attend.

I don't understand how this educated woman would say such a thing in my presence.

Her sister flew over and spent a couple of nights with us. One of those nights we were watching a black comedian saying ***** this and ***** that and I was offended but they were laughing and ....they were also laughing at the racial jokes he was telling about WHITE FOLKS and Crackers.
