The apparent height of a building 10.5 km away is 0.02 radians. What is the approximate height of the building to the nearest meter

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Approximate height of the building is 23213 meters.

Explanation:

Let the height of the building be represented by h.

0.02 radians = 0.02 × [tex]\frac{180^{o} }{\pi }[/tex]

                     = 0.02 x (180/[tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex])

0.02 radians  = 1.146°

10.5 km = 10500 m

Applying the trigonometric function, we have;

Tan θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

So that,

Tan 1.146° = [tex]\frac{h}{10500}[/tex]

⇒ h = Tan 1.146° x 10500

      = 2.21074 x 10500

      = 23212.77

h = 23213 m

The approximate height of the building is 23213 m.

A force off 700 newtons is applied to a 600 kg bowling ball. What is the acceleration of the bowling ball once the force is applied?

Answers

Answer:

1.17 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

[tex]a = \frac{f}{m} \\ [/tex]

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

[tex]a = \frac{700}{600} = \frac{7}{6} \\ = 1.1666666...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

1.17 m/s²

An athlete completes one round of circular track of diameter 200 meter in 40 sec. What will be the distance covered and the displacement at the end of 2 meter 20 seconds ?

Answers

Answer:

400m

Explanation:

If An athlete completes one round of circular track of diameter 200 meter in 40 sec, we can write;

200m = 40sec

To determine the distance after 2min 20secs, we can write;

x = 2,min 20sec

x = 80sec

Divide both expression

200/x = 40/80

200/x = 1/2

x = 2×200

x = 400m

Hence the distance covered after 2min 20secs is 400m

A force of 600N is used to slide a sled across a floor 20 meters . The rope pulling the sled is held at 35 * . How much work does the force do?

Answers

Answer:

9830 J

Explanation:

(Just a tip, you should use the degree symbol ° instead of *)

That being said we know W = F*d*cos(θ). In this case θ = 35°.

W = F*d*cos(θ) = 600*20*cos(35)

                         = 12000*cos(35)

                         = 9829.925 Joules

A wave has a frequency of 900 Hz and a wavelength of 200 m. At what speed is this wave traveling?

Answers

Answer:

The velocity of the wave is, v = 180,000 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The frequency of the wave, f = 900 Hz

The wavelength of the wave, λ = 200 m

The formula for the speed of the wave when the frequency and wavelength are known,

                               v = λ x f

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                               v = 200 m x 900 Hz

                                v = 180000 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the wave is, v = 180,000 m/s

TRUE or FALSE?If you are an astronaut slowly drifting away from the space station, you might be able to drift back to the station by throwing a 5-kg tool rapidly in the direction that you are traveling (away from the station).

Answers

Answer:

yes every action as an equal and and opposite reaction. if you throw a tool then it will give you a reaction and you will move back.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, when two bodies interact between them, appear equal forces and opposite senses in each of them.  

To understand it better:  

Each time a body or object exerts a force on a second body or object, it (the second body) will exert a force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction on the first.  

So, if you as an astronaut in the described situation throw your tool  in the direction that you are traveling (in the opposite direction of the space station), according to Newton's third law, you will be automatically moving towards the station

A 20N bucket is accelerated upward out of a well, by a rope with a force of 75N. What is the acceleration of the bucket

Answers

Answer:

36.76m/s²

Explanation:

Given

Weight of the bucket = 20N

Mass = Weight/acceleration due to gravity

Mass = 20/9.8

Mass = 2.04kg

Applied force = 75N

Get the acceleration

According to Newton's second law:

F = ma

a = F/m

a = 75/2.04

a = 36.76m/s²

Hence the acceleration of the bucket is 36.76m/s²

A gas has a pressure of 150 kPa at a volume of 6 m3. Calculate the volume of the same mass of gas at a pressure of 425 kPa

Answers

Answer:

V2 = 2.12 m³

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Original pressure, P1 = 150 kPa

New pressure, P2 = 425 kPa

Original volume, V1 = 6 m³

To find the new volume V2, we would use Boyles' law.

Boyles states that when the temperature of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.

Mathematically, Boyles law is given by;

[tex] PV = K[/tex]

[tex] P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2} [/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] 150 * 6 = 425V_{2} [/tex]

[tex] 900 = 425V_{2} [/tex]

[tex] 900 = 425V_{2} [/tex]

[tex] V_{2} = \frac {900}{425}[/tex]

[tex] V_{2} = 2.12[/tex]

Therefore, the new volume of the mass of gas is 2.12 cubic metre.
