4) The path of a satellite orbiting the earth causes it to pass directly over two
Naily [24]

Answers:

  • Satellite is approximately <u>2446.43 km</u> from station A.
  • Satellite is approximately <u>2441.61 km</u> above the ground.

=========================================================

Explanation:

I'm assuming tracking stations A and B are at the same elevation and are on flat ground. In reality, this is likely not the case; however, for the sake of simplicity, we'll assume this is the case.

The diagram is shown below. Points A and B describe the two stations, while point C is the satellite's location. Point D is on the ground directly below the satellite. We have these lengths

  • AB = 60 km
  • AD = x
  • CD = h

Focusing on triangle ACD, we can apply the tangent rule to isolate h.

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(A) = CD/AD

tan(86.4) = h/x

x*tan(86.4) = h

h = x*tan(86.4)

We'll use this later in the substitution below.

--------------------

Now move onto triangle BCD. For the reference angle B = 85, we can use the tangent rule to say

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(B) = CD/DB

tan(B) = CD/(DA+AB)

tan(85) = h/(x+60)

tan(85)*(x+60) = h

tan(85)*(x+60) = x*tan(86.4) .............  apply substitution; isolate x

x*tan(85)+60*tan(85) = x*tan(86.4)

60*tan(85) = x*tan(86.4)-x*tan(85)

60*tan(85) = x*(tan(86.4)-tan(85))

x*(tan(86.4)-tan(85)) = 60*tan(85)

x = 60*tan(85)/(tan(86.4)-tan(85))

x = 153.612786190499

--------------------

We'll use this approximate x value to find h

h = x*tan(86.4)

h = 153.612786190499*tan(86.4)

h = 2441.60531869599

h = 2441.61 km  is how high the satellite is above the ground.

Return to triangle ACD. We'll use the cosine rule to determine the length of the hypotenuse AC

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(A) = AD/AC

cos(86.4) = x/AC

cos(86.4) = 153.612786190499/AC

AC*cos(86.4) = 153.612786190499

AC = 153.612786190499/cos(86.4)

AC = 2446.43279498247

AC = 2446.43 km is the distance from the satellite to station A.

Desire <br> Help me with this quistion
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The value of n is 11 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the area of rectangle from is A = length×width so we have to substitute the variables into the formula in order to find n :

area = length \times width

Let area = 33,

Let length = n,

Let width = 3,

33 = n \times 3

3n = 33

n = 33 \div 3

n = 11 \: feet
