Spymaster Paul, flying a constant 215km/h horizontally in a low-flying helicopter, want to drop secret documents into his contac

t’s open car which is traveling 155km/h on a level highway 78.0m below. At what angle (to the horizontal) should the car be in his sights when the package is released?

Answer:

\theta = 49.56 degree

Explanation:

Relative horizontal velocity of plane with respect to the car is given as

v_r = v_p - v_c

so we have

v_p = 215 km/h

v_c = 155 km/h

now we have

v_r = 215 - 155

v_r = 60 km/h

v_r = 16.67 m/s

Now time taken by the object to drop the vertical height is given as

y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

78 = \frac{1}{2}(9.81)t^2

t = 3.98 s

so the distance of the car must be

d = v_r\times t

d = 16.67 \times 3.98

d = 66.47 m

Angle of the car with horizontal is given as

tan\theta = \frac{y}{x}

tan\theta = \frac{78}{66.47}

\theta = tan^{-1}(1.17)

\theta = 49.56 degree

Which event in a solar cell uses the photoelectric effect?
musickatia [10]

Answer:

Light shone on metal expulses electrons from its surface. This phenomenon is the photoelectric effect, and the electrons are called photoelectrons. Experiments indicate that by increasing light frequency, the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons increases, and by intensifying the light, the current increases

A tow truck is pulling 25,000 kg van with a tow hook that meets the van at an angle of 30° with the ground. How much force must
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

86605.08 N

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the force is:

Force = mass * acceleration

The force and the acceleration does not have the same direction in this case, so we need to decompose the force into its horizontal component, which is the force that will generate the horizontal acceleration:

Force_x = Force * cos(30)

Then, we have that:

Force_x = mass * acceleration

Force * cos(30) = 25000 * 3

Force * 0.866 = 75000

Force = 75000 / 0.866 = 86605.08 N
