You observe a plane approaching overhead and assume that its speed is 600 miles per hour. The angle of elevation of the plane is

19° at one time and 59° one minute later. Approximate the altitude of the plane. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:4.34 miles

Explanation:

first  Elevation =19^{\circ}

After 1 minute Elevation changes to 59^{\circ}

Ditsance travelled in 1 minute =600\times \frac{1}{60}=10 mile

Now

tan59=\frac{H}{x}

H=xtan59

tan19=\frac{H}{10+x}

H=\left ( 10+x\right )tan19

Equating H

we get

1.319x=10tan19

x=2.61 miles

H=2.61\times tan59=4.34 miles

What are the 3 Newton's law of motions?
irinina [24]

Answer:

laws of motion relate an object’s motion to the forces acting on it. In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

You place ammonium nitrate crystals in water and stirred. As you do so, the container becomes cold to the touch. This an example
ankoles [38]

The process of flask becoming cold is due to endothermic reaction.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

So two kinds of heat transfer can be possible in any chemical reaction. If the sample is considered as system and the sample container is considered as the surrounding, then heat transfer can occur between them.

If the heat is transferred from the surrounding to the system , then it is an endothermic reaction. And in those cases, the sample holder will be becoming colder. This is because the heat from the surrounding that is the container will be utilized to complete the reaction.

While when there is transfer of heat from the system to surrounding , it will be exothermic reaction and the beaker will be getting hot in this process. So in the present case, the container is becoming cold because of occurrence of endothermic process.

A uniform, thin, solid door has height 2.30 m, width 0.875 m, and mass 24.0 kg. (a) find its moment of inertia for rotation on i
vekshin1
A uniform thin solid door has height 2.20 m, width .870 m, and mass 23.0 kg. Find its moment of inertia for rotation on its hinges. Is any piece of data unnecessary? So far, I don't understand how to calculate moments of inertia for things like this at all. I can do a system of particles, but when it comes to any ridgid objects, such as this door or rods or cylinders, I don't get it. So basically I have no idea where to even start with this.
