Answer :  The angle between the string and the horizontal is 30 degrees

Explanation:  Imagine this a a triangle where the length of the string (200m) is the hypotenuse and the height of the kite is the opposite side (100m) .

Let the angle between the string and the horizontal be theta.

Now  sin (Theta) = opposite side/hypotenuse

                             =  100/200 = 1/2

Therefore Theta = Sin ⁻¹ ( 1/2 )

Theta = 30 degrees

9.82 × 10⁸ ft/s



<u>Explanation </u>

A number written in scientific notation is in the form'

A × 10ⁿ

Where 1 ≤ A < 10 and

n ⇒ is an integer.


982,080,000 = 9.82 × 100,000,000

= 9.82 × 100,000,000

= 9.82 × 10⁸ ft/s

What is the direction of transfer of energy in the waves produced?
NemiM [27]
Transverse waves occur when a disturbance causes oscillationsperpendicular (at right angles) to the propagation (the direction of energy transfer). Longitudinal waves occur when the oscillations are parallel to the direction of propagation.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: a. How the mass of an extended object is distributed about a rotation axis

Explanation: Moment of inertia is defined as the measure of the rotational inertia of a solid object, it is a quantity that defines the torque needed to reach a desired angular acceleration around a given rotation axis, and it depends mainly on the mass distribution of the object, so the correct answer is: "how the mass of an extended object is distributed about a rotation axis"
