I don't exactly understand the substance of the question so im going to assume that the answer you are looking for is buoyancy. Buoyancy determines whether something sinks or floats in water. A ship has a larger buoyancy due to the shape of the hull, a nail is does not and will sink.
Answer:
the angle the ladder makes with the floor as seen by an observer on Earth is 71.9°
Explanation:
Given the data in the question and as illustrated in the diagram below.
speed of the ship v = 0.90c
base of the ladder from the wall x₀ = 3.0 m
top of the later above the floor y = 4.0 m
we determine angle θ.
from the diagram,
tanθ = y/x₀
tanθ = y / x₀√( 1 - v²/c² )
we substitute
tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√( 1 - ((0.9c)²/c²) )
tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√( 1 - ((0.9²)c²/c²) )
tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√( 1 - (0.9²) )
tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√( 1 - 0.81 )
tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√0.19
tanθ = 4.0 / 1.30766968
tanθ = 3.058876
θ = tan⁻¹( 3.058876 )
θ = 71.8965 ≈ 71.9°
Therefore, the angle the ladder makes with the floor as seen by an observer on Earth is 71.9°
The answer is 35 minutes
The Newton's law of cooling is:
T(x) = Ta + (To - Ta)e⁻ⁿˣ
T(x) - the temperature of the coffee at time x
Ta - the ambient temperature
To - the initial temperature
n - constant
step 1. Calculate constant k:
We have:
T(x) = 200°F
x = 10 min
Ta = 68°F
To = 210°F
n = ?
T(x) = Ta + (To - Ta)e⁻ⁿˣ
200 = 68 + (210 - 68)e⁻ⁿ*¹⁰
200 = 68 + 142 * e⁻¹⁰ⁿ
200 - 68 = 142 * e⁻¹⁰ⁿ
132 = 142 * e⁻¹⁰ⁿ
e⁻¹⁰ⁿ = 132/142
e⁻¹⁰ⁿ = 0.93
Logarithm both sides with natural logarithm:
ln(e⁻¹⁰ⁿ) = ln(0.93)
-10n * ln(e) = -0.07
-10n * 1 = - 0.07
-10n = -0.07
n = -0.07 / - 10
n = 0.007
Step 2. Calculate time x when T(x) = 180°F:
We have:
T(x) = 180°F
x = ?
Ta = 68°F
To = 210°F
n = 0.007
T(x) = Ta + (To - Ta)e⁻ⁿˣ
180 = 68 + (210 - 68)e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ
180 - 68 = 142 * e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ
112 = 142 * e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷⁾*ˣ
e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ = 112/142
e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ = 0.79
Logarithm both sides with natural logarithm:
ln(e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ) = ln(0.79)
-0.007x * ln(e) = -0.24
-0.007x * 1 = -0.24
-0.007x = -0.24
x = -0.24 / -0.007
x ≈ 35
