Answer :

The distance is 109.89 m.

Explanation :

Given that,

Height = 40 m

Angle = 20°

We need to calculate the base of the​ plateau

Using formula of angle

\tan\thata=\dfrac{h}{x}

Where, h = height

x = base

\theta = angle

Put the value into the formula

\tan20^{\circ}=\dfrac{40}{x}

x=\dfrac{40}{tan20^{\circ}}

x =109.89\ m

Hence, The distance is 109.89 m.

A cannon fires a 0.652 kg shell with initial
laila [671]
 Mass have no effect for the projectile motion and  u want to know the  height "h"   
first,
        find the vertical and horizontal components of velocity 
 vertical component of velocity = 12 sin 61                  
horizontal component of velocity = 12 cos 61
now for the vertical motion ;               
             S = ut + (1/2) at^2
where
 s = h 
u = initial vertical component of velocity 
t = 0.473 s 
a = gravitational deceleration (-g) = -9.8 m/s^2    
       
         h=[12×sin 610×0.473]+[−9.8×(0.473)2] 

u can simplify this and u will get the answer

h=.5Gt2 

H=1.09m

Which of the following statements about electric field lines associated with electric charges is false? Electric field lines can
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The false statement is 'Electric field lines form closed loops'.

Explanation:

  • Electric field lines originate from positive end and terminates at negative end,i.e., field lines are inward in direction to the negative charges and outward from the positive charges.
  • These lines when close together represents high intensity and when far apart shows low intensity of the field.
  • These lines do not intersect, as the tangent drawn on these lines provides us with the field direction and intersection of these lines means two field directions which is not possible.
  • These lines unlike magnetic field lines do not form closed loops as they do not turn around but originate at positive end and terminates at negative end which ensures no loop formation.

Which is the result of using a machine?
Eddi Din [679]
Correct Answers is A.

The machines gives us some mechanical advantage. This means the mechanical average makes the work output greater than the work input
Simple most example is a lever. The force applied is smaller and the output work is larger as compared to input.

Option B cannot be true, as there must be a force to get some work done.
Option C and D are inverse of what a machine is designed for. A small force can be exerted through a large distance to have a large force exerted through a small distance. Common Example of this principle is a screw opener.
