You are stationary on the ground and are watching a bird fly horizontally towards you at a rate of 2 m/s. The bird is located 20

m above your head. How fast does the angle of elevation of your head change when the horizontal distance between you and the bird is 110 m

The angle of elevation changes by 0.0032 rad / sec

Let x (t) be the horizontal distance from you to bird.

Let θ be the angle of elevation of your head.

Then .tan  θ = 20 /x

Differentiating

Sec² = dθ / dt = -20/x².dx/dt

dθ / dt = -20/x².dx/dt.cos²θ

dx/dt = -2m/s   x = 110m

cos²θ = 110²/ (110²) + (20²) = 12100/12500

dθ / dt = 20/ (110)² x (-2) . 12100/12500

=  20 x 2/12500 = 0.0032 radian/s.

Hence ,

The angle of elevation changes by 0.0032 rad / sec

In a classroom demonstration, students are using a Slinky to observe and learn about wave properties. If the Slinky has a period
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Frequency = 3.0 Hertz

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Period = 0.333 seconds

To find the frequency;

Mathematically, frequency of a wave is given by the formula;

Frequency = 1/period

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Frequency = 1/0.333

Frequency = 3.0 Hertz

Mr. Beall paddles his canoe at 8.0 m/s North in a river that flows at 6.0 m/s to the South. What is the magnitude and direction
kifflom [539]

Answer:

2 /s north

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity due North is 8 m/s and due south is 6 m/s

We need to find the magnitude and the direction of the resulting velocity.

Let North is positive and South is negative. When two velocities are in opposite direction, they adds up. So,

v=8+(-6)\\\\v=2\ m/s

It is positive. So, it is in North direction.

if you have several different substances mixed together, like Italian salad dressing, where do the most dense materials go where
Alecsey [184]
If you've ever mixed water and oil together,you've probably noticed that the oil rises to the top and the water stays at the bottom-- no matter how much you try to shake them. This is because oil is less dense than water, making it float to the top. The molecules in oil are larger than those in water, so they don't pack as tightly together as they do in water. In a mixture of oil and vinegar, the<span> </span>oil <span>floats on the </span>vinegar/<span>water mixture, while the solids sink to the bottom. So, if one material floats over another, the material on top is less dense. 

Let me know if this helps! :)</span>
