A mouse spots an owl flying 10.1 feet over a nearby bush. The mouse is 30 feet away from the bush, and it sees the owl at a cert

ain angle of elevation. Which trigonometric equation can be used to solve for x, the angle of elevation from the mouse to the owl?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

fly is at height of h=10.1\ ft

mouse is at a distance of 30 ft from bush

if \theta  is the angle of elevation then

using trigonometric relation

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

\tan \theta =\frac{10.1}{30}

\theta =tan^{-1}(\frac{10.1}{30})

\theta =18.57^{\circ}

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A) 3.13 m/s

B) 5.34 N

C) W = 26.9 J

Explanation:

We are told that the position as a function of time is given by;

x(t) = αt² + βt³

Where;

α = 0.210 m/s² and β = 2.04×10^(−2) m/s³ = 0.0204 m/s³

Thus;

x(t) = 0.21t² + 0.0204t³

A) Velocity is gotten from the derivative of the displacement.

Thus;

v(t) = x'(t) = 2(0.21t) + 3(0.0204t²)

v(t) = 0.42t + 0.0612t²

v(4.5) = 0.42(4.5) + 0.0612(4.5)²

v(4.5) = 3.1293 m/s ≈ 3.13 m/s

B) acceleration is gotten from the derivative of the velocity

a(t) = v'(t) = 0.42 + 2(0.0612t)

a(4.5) = 0.42 + 2(0.0612 × 4.5)

a(4.5) = 0.9708 m/s²

Force = ma = 5.5 × 0.9708

F = 5.3394 N ≈ 5.34 N

C) Since no friction, work done is kinetic energy.

Thus;

W = ½mv²

W = ½ × 5.5 × 3.1293²

W = 26.9 J

Explain how this happens?
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

When the polythene rod is rubbed with the woolen cloth, static electric charges move from the cloth and into the rod. The rod becomes negatively charged as negative charges move from the cloth and into the rod leaving the cloth positively charged as well.
