The cosine of the angle in a right triangle is (adjacent side) divided by (hypotenuse).

As luck would have it, the picture doesn't give us the length of the adjacent side, so we have to calculate THAT before we can calculate the cosine.

You can easily find the length of the adjacent side ... call Pythagoras in. The adjacent side is the square root of (10-squared minus 2-squared).

When you have that, the cosine of the angle is just (that) divided by 10.

List three ways light can be grouped based on how much light shines through or passes through them
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Materials can be classified based on the amount of light they transmit. Materials, which allow complete transmission of light, are called transparent. Any object can be seen through a transparent material. One example of transparent material is pure glass.

A spring that has a force constant of 1050 N/m is mounted vertically on the ground. A block of mass 1.95 kg is dropped from rest
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

25.2 cm

Explanation:

K = 1050 N/m

m = 1.95 kg

h = 1.75 m

By the conservation of energy, the potential energy of the block is converted into the potential energy stored in the spring

m g h = 1/2 x k x y^2

Where, y be the distance by which the spring is compressed.

1.95 x 9.8 x 1.75 = 1/2 x 1050 x y^2

33.44 = 525 x y^2

y = 0.252 m

y = 25.2 cm
