The angle of depression between the bird and the birdwatcher is 61.32°

In the question, it is said that the distance between two birds is 17.8ft and the distance between the first bird and the birdwatcher is 37.4ft. So, when we draw an image in our mind then we can say that this whole system forms a right-angle triangle with a base of 17.8ft and a hypotenuse of 37.4ft. As we know that to calculate the angle of depression we will use trigonometric equations here i.e.,

cos x = Base/Hypotenuse

cos x = 17.8 / 37.4

cos x = 0.48

x = cos⁻¹(0.48)

x =  61.32°

Thus, the angle of depression is 61.32°.

A major artery with a cross sectional area of 1.00cm^2 branches into 18 smaller arteries, each with an average cross sectional a
dybincka [34]

Here we can say that rate of flow must be constant

so here we will have

A_1v_1 = 18 A_2v_2

now we know that

A_1 = 1 cm^2

A_2 = 0.4 cm^2

now from above equation

1 cm^2 v_1 = 18(0.400 cm^2)v_2

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = \frac{1}{18\times 0.4}

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = 0.14

so velocity will reduce by factor 0.14

A person is initially driving a car east down a straight road. the magnitude of the instantaneous acceleration is decreasing wit
Alexxandr [17]
By definition, acceleration is the change in velocity per change of time. As time passes by, the time increases in value. So, when the acceleration is decreasing while the time is increasing, then that means that the change of velocity is also decreasing with time. So, optimally, the initial velocity and the velocity at any time are very relatively close to each other,

levacccp [35]

The actual weight of the gas = apparent weight + weight.

The actual weight = W_{A} + W

Given that a plastic bag is massed. It is then filled with a gas which is insoluble in water and massed again.

If the apparent weight of the gas is the difference between these two masses, then let the apparent weight = W_{A}

The gas is squeezed out of the bag to determine its volume by the displacement of water. Since

density = mass / volume

The density of water is 1000 kg/m^{2}

we can get the mass of the gas by making m the subject of the formula.

W = mg

The actual weight of the gas = apparent weight + weight

That is,

The actual weight =  W_{A} + W
