Distance of lake a is 200 km at 20 degree north of east

distance between lake a and b is 230 km at 30 degree west of north

now the distance between base and lake b is given as

d = d_1 + d_2

given that

d_1 = 200 cos20 i + 200 sin20 j

d_1 = 187.94 i + 68.4 j

d_2 = -230 sin30 i + 230 cos30 j

d_2 = -115 i + 199.2 j

now the total distance is

d = (187.94 - 115)i + (199.2 + 68.4)j

d = 72.94 i + 267.6 j

now the magnitude of the distance is given as

d = \sqrt{72.94^2 + 267.6^2}

d = 277.4

also the direction is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{267.6}{72.94}

\theta = 74.7 degree

<em>so it is 277.4 km at 74.7 degree North of East</em>

How long does it take anya to cover the distance of 5.00 miles ?
sammy [17]
Here is the full information about the question. <span>Ilya and Anya each can run at a speed of 8.50mph and walk at a speed of 3.50 mph . They set off together on a route of length 5.00 miles . Anya walks half of the distance and runs the other half, while Ilya walks half of the time and runs the other half.
the calculation would be:
</span><span>
t = d / s </span>
<span>t = 2.5 (half of the total distance) / 8.5 (speed of running) </span>
<span>This is .294 hours which is about 1058s... </span>

<span>for the walking part... </span>

<span>t = d / s </span>
<span>t = 2.5 / 3.5 </span>
<span>t = 5/7hours = 2571 s. </span>

Nuclear fusion in the core tries to blow the star apart. Gravity holds it together. Whoever designed that system really knew what he was doing. I'm​ kinda grateful to him.

Location A receives
Vlad1618 [11]

Location A receives more rainfall than Location B due to the rain shadow effect.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Rain shadow effect is caused due to the presence of mountains.
  • A rain shadow area is an area of land that has been forced to become dry, devoid of any vegetation growth due to the blockage of precipitation by mountains. These rain shadow areas will have a dry climate.
  • The other side of the mountain would receive plenty of precipitation and therefore would be flourished with plant growth. These areas will have a cool and wet climate.
  • In this case, Location A is on the other side of the mountain and so receives more rainfall or precipitation. Meanwhile, Location B is on the rain shadow region and so receives less rainfall.
