SOH-CAH-TOA is used to solve for the ________

Physics
1 answer:
Misha Larkins [42]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

c. initial (x and y)

Explanation:

When a projectile is launched at a velocity with a launch angle, to solve it, we must first resolve the initial velocity into the x and y components. To do this will mean we have to treat it like a triangle due to the launch angle and the direction of the projectile.

Therefore, we will have to make use of trigonometric ratios which is also known by the mnemonic "SOH CAH TOA"

Thus, this method resolves the initial x and y velocities.

A 5,000 kg satellite is orbiting the Earth in a circular path. The height of the satellite above the surface of the Earth is 800
Arada [10]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

            m = 5000 kg,            h = 800 km = 0.8 \times 10^{6} m

    R_{e} = 6.37 \times 10^{6} m,    r = R + h = 7.17 \times 10^{6} m

   M_{e} = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg,   G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}

As we know that,

              \frac{mv^{2}}{r} = \frac{GmM_{e}}{r^{2}}

                      v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{2}}}

And, it is known that formula to calculate angular velocity is as follows.

               \omega = \frac{v}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{3}}}

                            v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{3}}}

                               = \sqrt{\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2} \times 5.98 \times 10^{-24} kg^{-2}}{(7.17 \times 10^{6} m)^{3}}}

                                = 1.0402 \times 10^{-3} rad/s

Thus, we can conclude that speed of the satellite is 1.0402 \times 10^{-3} rad/s.

Nose bleeding occurs as we move towards high altitude, why?
Irina18 [472]
Nosebleeds can be caused by being up in a very high altitude. As you climb higher, the amount of oxygen in the air decreases. This makes the air thinner and dryer, which can in turn cause the inside of your nose to crack and bleed.F

Gerry is looking at salt under a powerful microscope and notice a crystalline structure.what can be known about the salt sample
Natali [406]

Well, if the salt that Gerry's looking at under a powerful microscope has a crystalline structure, then that's saying that salt is technically a solid.

(I hope that this is an answer you were looking for)

Total internal reflection occurs when the angle of incidence
laiz [17]
Total internal reflection complete reflection of a ray of light within a medium such as water or glass from the surrounding surfaces back into the medium. The phenomenon occurs if the angle of incidence is greater than a certain limiting angle, called the critical angle.
