OpenStudy (anonymous):

isnt the equation to find work if force time distance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and i get confused because it doesnt gives me a distance it only give me force

OpenStudy (roadjester):

20 cos(30) =10N

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait how did you get ten do i insert that equation in the calculator?

OpenStudy (roadjester):

oh oops it's not 10 cos(30) is (sqrt 3)/2

OpenStudy (roadjester):

and yes, just put it in the calculator
