Draw a right triangle so that its hypotenuse is 600 ft. The adjacent side is below the vertical, and it makes an angle of 75° with the hypotenuse.

Let h =  height of the right triangle.
By definition,
sin75° = h/600
h = 600*sin75° = 579.555 = 580 ft (nearest ft)

Answer: 580 ft (nearest foot)

Answer:

Height, h = 580 ft

Explanation:

It is given that,

The distance traveled by the plane, d = 600 feet

The airplane takes off at an angle of 75° from its starting point.

Let h is the vertical height above the runway. It is the trigonometric problem. Let h is the height of the vertical height above the runway. It can be calculated using the trigonometric formula as :

sin\theta=\dfrac{h}{d}

sin(75)=\dfrac{h}{600}

h = 579.55 feet

or

h = 580 ft

So, the vertical height above the runway is 580 feet. Hence, this is the required solution.

Let's cut through the weeds and the trash
and get down to the real situation:

                  A stone is tossed straight up at  5.89 m/s .
                  Ignore air resistance.


Gravity slows down the speed of any rising object by  9.8 m/s every second.
So the stone (aka Billy-Bob-Joe) continues to rise for

                     (5.89 m/s / 9.8 m/s²)  =  0.6 seconds.

At that timer, he has run out of upward gas.  He is at the top
of his rise, he stops rising, and begins to fall.

His average speed on the way up is  (1/2) (5.89 + 0) = 2.945 m/s .

Moving for 0.6 seconds at an average speed of  2.945 m/s,
he topped out at

                    (2.945 m/s) (0.6 s) =  1.767 meters above the trampoline.

With no other forces other than gravity acting on him, it takes him
the same time to come down from the peak as it took to rise to it.

   (0.6 sec up) + (0.6 sec down)  =  1.2 seconds until he hits rubber again.

Name human body organs where magnetism is significant
ser-zykov [4K]
It has been hypothesized, and some studies have supported the conjecture,
that certain species of insects and birds are able to sense the direction of external
magnetic fields.

I don't think there is any such notion where human beings are concerned.
