A boat is being towed such that the tow line is at an angle of 30° with respect to the surface of the ocean. If the boat is towed with a force of 50 Newtons for 7,000 meters, approximately how much work is done? A. 152,000 Joules
B. 175,000 Joules
C. 303,000 Joules
D. 350,000 Joules

C. 303,000 Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

1. use abcos(theta)

a=50

b=7000

theta=30 degrees

2. (50)(7000)cos(30)=303,000

check the picture below.

well, the angle at the vertex d is clearly not a right-angle, let's check for the one at the vertex f which does look like,   however if it's indeed, that means ef is perpendicular to df, in which case their slopes will be negative reciprocal of each other.

so the negative reciprocal of the slope of ef is 1, however the slope of df is not 1, is 1/2, so nope, they're not perpendicular lines.
