Answer:

length of the ladder is 13.47 feet

base of wall to latter distance 6.10 feet

angle between ladder and the wall is 26.95°

Explanation:

given data

height h  = 12 feet

angle 63°

to find out

length of the ladder ( L) and length of wall to ladder ( A) and angle between  ladder and the wall

solution

we consider here angle between base of wall and floor is right angle

we apply here trigonometry rule that is

sin63 = h/L

put here value

L = 12 / sin63

L = 13.47

so length of the ladder is 13.47 feet

and

we can say

tan 63 = h / A

put here value

A = 12 / tan63

A = 6.10

so base of wall to latter distance 6.10 feet

and

we say here

tanθ = 6.10 / 12

θ = 26.95°

so angle between ladder and the wall is 26.95°

Consider a river flowing toward a lake at an average speed of 3 m/s at a rate of 550 m3/s at a location 58 m above the lake surf
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

1. 0.574 kJ/kg

2. 315.7 MW

Explanation:

1. The mechanical energy per unit mass of the river is given by:

E_{m} = E_{k} + E_{p}

E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}v^{2} + gh

Where:

Ek is the kinetic energy

Ep is the potential energy

v is the speed of the river = 3 m/s

g is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h is the height = 58 m

E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}(3 m/s)^{2} + 9.81 m/s^{2}*58 m = 0.574 kJ/Kg

Hence, the total mechanical energy of the river is 0.574 kJ/kg.

2. The power generation potential on the river is:

P = m(t)E_{m} = \rho*V(t)*E_{m} = 1000 kg/m^{3}*550 m^{3}/s*0.574 kJ/kg = 315.7 MW

Therefore, the power generation potential of the entire river is 315.7 MW.

I hope it helps you!

Prove for N/C=Volt/m
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

simple, Volt =change in potential energy/Charge

the unit of energy is newton meter (Force*distance)

the unit of charge is coloumb

So, Volt/meter=newton* meter/coloumb*meter

=newton/coloumb (hence proved)

This unit is the potential drop per unit of length in a conductive wire with uniform resistance

A group of Advanced Open Water Divers plans to make two dives. The first dive is on a reef in 90 feet of water for 20 minutes. T
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The ending pressure is R.

Explanation:

This is Recreational scuba diving (R). According to standards, this diving has prescribed depth limit of 130 ft. This means that the limit must include a depth that is not greater than 130 ft while using only compressed air and not even requiring a decompression stop.

Now, from the question, we can see that that there was a prescribed limit of 60ft of water with a planned bottom time of 30 minutes.

Thus, the ending pressure is R.
