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

How can submarines use echolocation to tell how close they are to the bottom of the ocean?
Lapatulllka [165]
To locate a specific target or to determine how close submarines are to the seafloor, they use active and passive sound navigation and ranging (or a SONAR, in simple terms.) It emits pulses of sound waves that travel through the water, reflect off the target and relayed back to the ship. By determining how fast the sound wave travels back, the computers on the sub calculate how far they are from the target.

Hope this helps.

Give a calculate answer to show that the two values (English system and metric system) for the Planck Constant are equivalent.
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Given values of Planck Constant are equivalent in English system and metric system.

Explanation:

Value of Planck's constant is given in English system as 4.14 x 10⁻¹⁵eV s.

Converting this in to metric system .

We have 1 eV = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Converting

     4.14 x 10⁻¹⁵eV s = 4.14 x 10⁻¹⁵x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ Joule s

So Given values of Planck Constant are equivalent in English system and metric system.
