Answer:

-2.26×10^-4 radians

Explanation:

The solution involves a right angle triangle

Length is z while the horizontal is the height x

X^2+ 100^2=z^2

Taking the derivatives

2x(dx/dt)=Z^2(dz/dt)

Specific moments = Z= 200 ,X= 100sqrt3 and dx/dt= 11

dz/dt= 1100sqrt3/200 = 9.53

Sin a= 100/a

Taking derivatives in terms of t

Cos a(da/dt)=100/z^2 dz/dt

a= 30°

Cos (30°)da/dt= (-100/40000×9.5)

a= -2.26×10^-4radians

Answer:

0.11 rad/s

Explanation:

Given  that,

kite is 100 ft high

and moves horizontally at 7 ft/s

Total string let out =200 ft

String length(l), vertical(y) & Horizontal(x) distance of kite will form a right angle triangle

L^2 = y^2 + x^2

differentiate both side

= 2y\frac{dy}{dt}  + 2x\frac{dx}{dt} \\y\frac{dy}{dt} = -x\frac{dx}{dt} \\100\frac{dy}{dt}  = \sqrt{3} * 100 * \frac{dx}{dt} \\\frac{dy}{dt} = 11\sqrt{3}

Now Lcosθ = x

diferentiate

Lsin\theta * \frac{d\theta }{dt} = \frac{dx}{dt} \\200 * \frac{100}{200} * \frac{d\theta}{dt}  = 11\\\frac{d\theta }{dt }  = 0.11 rad/s

Is it possible for an object to be in motion without any external force applied? justify
Rudiy27
Newton’s first law is commonly stated as:
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion.
However, this is missing an important element related to forces. We could expand it by stating:
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion at a constant speed and direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
By the time Newton came along, the prevailing theory of motion—formulated by Aristotle—was nearly two thousand years old. It stated that if an object is moving, some sort of force is required to keep it moving. Unless that moving thing is being pushed or pulled, it will simply slow down or stop. Right?
This, of course, is not true. In the absence of any forces, no force is required to keep an object moving. An object (such as a ball) tossed in the earth’s atmosphere slows down because of air resistance (a force). An object’s velocity will only remain constant in the absence of any forces or if the forces that act on it cancel each other out, i.e. the net force adds up to zero. This is often referred to as equilibrium. The falling ball will reach a terminal velocity (that stays constant) once the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity.

Which of the following statements describe the steps you need to take to delete a file?
Doss [256]
In order to delete a file, it is required to first select the file which you want to delete and then select 'delete' from the file menu. It will then ask you to confirm the deletion which will be required in order to complete the file deletion process.

It isn't required to click on the X at the top right of the screen or to open the file you want to delete as these steps aren't relevant to the deletion process.

Hence, the statements which describe the steps you need to take in order to delete a file are as follows:

- Confirm the deletion.
- Select Delete from the File menu.
- Select the file you want to delete.

The lasers are red, meaning that they are giving off light in the _____ region of the electromagnetic spectrum
Softa [21]

As per the question the color of laser light is given as red.

If we arrange all the electromagnetic waves in the decreasing order of frequency ,then the electromagnetic spectrum contains gamma ray as the first which is followed by all other electromagnetic waves according to their frequency.

The visible light ranges from 400 nm to 700 nm which contains sunlight i.e white colors with it's constituent colors starting from violet to red. The red color is the longest wavelength part of the visible region.

The wavelength of visible light is longer than ultraviolet wave but smaller than infrared radiation. Except the bisible region,the color of radiation is invisible to eye.


As per the question the color of emiited laser radiation is red .Hence it must lie in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
