Answer:

2005 feet

Explanation:

The height of the tower is represented by X in the attached image.

In order to determine X:

Tan 20.8^o = opposite/adjacent = X/5280

Therefore,

X = 5280 x Tan 20.8^o

Tan 20.8^o = 0.3798

Hence,

X = 5280 x 0.3798

   = 2005.344

The height of the tower to the nearest foot is 2005 ft.

Define instantaneous velocity
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

<h2><em><u>Instantaneous Velocity. The instantaneous velocity of an object is the limit of the average velocity as the elapsed time approaches zero, or the derivative of x with respect to t: v(t)=ddtx(t). v ( t ) = d d t x ( t ) . Like average velocity, instantaneous velocity is a vector with dimension of length per time.</u></em></h2>

A grapefruit has a weight on earth of 4.9 newtons. what is the grapefruit's mass?
abruzzese [7]
The force of gravity is the force with which massively large objects such as the earth attracts another object towards itself. All objects of the earth exert a gravity that is directed towards the center of the earth. Therefore, the force of gravity of the earth is equal to the mass of the object times acceleration due to gravity.  

F = ma
4.9N = m (9.8 m/s^2), note that N (newtons) = kg-m/s^2
<u>m = 0.5 kg</u>
<u>The mass of the object is 0.5kg.</u>
