Which of the following BEST describes a body in equilibrium?
sukhopar [10]

\textsf {\large{\underline { \underline {SOLUTION:-}}}}

⇰Let O be the point of observation on the ground OX.

⇰Let A and B be the two positions of the jet.

\bf➠Then, \angle XOA=60⁰ \: and   \: \angle \: XOB=30⁰ \\  \\

\bf ➠Draw \:   AL \perp \: OX \: and  \: BM \perp \: OX \\  \\

\bf \:⇰ Let \: AL=BM=h \: meters. \\  \\

\bf \: ⇰ \: Speed \: of \: Jet  = 720 \: km/hr\\

\bf =  \huge( \small \: 720 \times  \frac{5}{18}  \huge) \small \: m / s\\

\bf = 200 \: m/s

\bf \:➥ Time  \: taken \: to \: cover \: the \: distance  \: AB=15  \: sec  \\  \\

\bf➥ Distance  \: covered =(speed×time) \\  \\

\:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \bf = (200 \times 15)m = 3000m \\  \\

\bf \therefore LM=AB=3000m \\  \\

{ \bf \: ⇰  \: Let \: OL} = x   \:  \bf m \\  \\

\bf➥From  \: right  \: \triangle OLA, \: we \: have: \\

\bf \frac{OL}{AL} =cot \: 60⁰= \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } \implies \frac{x}{h}  =  \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} }  \\  \\

\bf \implies \: x =  \frac{h}{ \sqrt{3} }  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: ....(1) \\  \\

\bf \:➥ From  \: right  \: \triangle \: OMB,we \: have: \\

\bf\frac{OM}{BM} =cot30⁰= \sqrt{3}  \\  \\

\bf \implies \:  \frac{x + 3000}{h}  =  \sqrt{3}  \\  \\

\bf[ \boxed{➯OM=OL+LM=OL+AB=(x+3000)m  \: and \: BM=h \: m]}

\bf \implies \: x + 3000 =  \sqrt{3} h \\

\bf \implies \: x = ( \sqrt{3} h - 3000) \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: ....(2) \\

⇰ Equating the value of x from (1) and (2),we get;

\bf \:  \sqrt{3} h - 3000  =  \frac{h}{ \sqrt{3} }  \\  \\

\implies \bf \: 3h  - 3000 \sqrt{3}  = h \\

\bf \implies \: 2h = (3000 \times  \sqrt{3} ) = (3000 \times 1.762) \\

\bf \implies \: h = (3000 \times 0.866) = 2598  \\  \\

\bf \:➥ Hence \: ,the \: required  \: height \: is \: \boxed{ \boxed{ \bf2598 \: m.}} \\  \\

What is Muscular Strength and Body Composition?
MissTica

Answer:

Muscular Strength: Muscular strength refers to the amount of force a muscle can produce with a single maximal effort. The size of your muscle fibers and the ability of nerves to activate muscle fibers are related to muscle strength. It is measured during muscular contraction. Building muscle strength helps with body alignment, makes performing everyday actions easier, and increases metabolism.

Body composition: Body composition is a method of breaking down the body into its core components: fat, protein, minerals, and body water. It describes your weight more accurately and provides a better glimpse into your overall health than traditional methods. Body composition analysis can accurately show changes in fat mass, muscle mass, and body fat percentage.
