A 200-foot tall monument is located in the distance. From a window in a building, a person determines that the angle of elevatio

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

665 ft

Explanation:

Let d be the distance from the person to the monument. Note that d is perpendicular to the monument and would make 2 triangles with the monuments, 1 up and 1 down.

The side length of the up right-triangle knowing the other side is d and the angle of elevation is 13 degrees is

$dtan13^0 = 0.231d$

Similarly, the side length of the down right-triangle knowing the other side is d and the angle of depression is 4 degrees

$dtan4^0 = 0.07d$

Since the 2 sides length above make up the 200 foot monument, their total length is

0.231d + 0.07d = 200

0.301 d = 200

d = 200 / 0.301 = 665 ft

The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface,pointing down, that averages 102 N/C. This field is maintained by various

Schach [20]

Answer:

$q = -461532.5 \ C$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The electric filed is $E = 102 \ N/C$

Generally according to Gauss law

=> $E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }$

Given that the electric field is pointing downward , the equation become

$- E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }$

Here $q$ is the excess charge on the surface of the earth

$A$ is the surface area of the of the earth which is mathematically represented as

$A = 4\pi r^2$

Where r is the radius of the earth which has a value $r = 6.3781*10^6 m$

substituting values

$A = 4 * 3.142 * (6.3781*10^6 \ m)^2$

$A =5.1128 *10^{14} \ m^2$

So

$q = -E * A * \epsilon _o$

Here $\epsilon_o$ s the permitivity of free space with value

$\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} \ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2$

substituting values

$q = -102 * 5.1128 *10^{14} * 8.85 *10^{-12}$

$q = -461532.5 \ C$

a glass beaker has a mass of 50g. a liquid of density 1.8g/cm3 is poured into the beaker until it reaches the 200cm3 mark. calcu

xz_007 [3.2K]

<u>Answer:</u>

total mass = 410 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

density = 1.8 g/cm³

volume = 200 cm³

density = mass / volume

mass (of liquid) = density x volume

= 1.8 x 200

= 360 g

total mass (beaker + liquid) = 50 + 360 = 410 g [Ans]

Hope this helps!

a moving billiard ball collides with an identical stationary billiard ball in an elastic collision. after the collision, the sec

MArishka [77]

A billiard ball collides with a stationary identical billiard ball to make it move. If the collision is perfectly elastic, the first ball comes to rest after collision.

<h3>Why does the first ball comes to rest after collision ?</h3>

Let m be the mass of the two identical balls.

u1 = velocity before the collision of ball 1

u2 = 0 = velocity of second ball that is at rest

v1 and v2 are the velocities of the balls after the collision.

From the conservation of momentum,

∴ mu1 + mu2 = mv1 + mv2

∴ mu1 = mv1 + mv2

∴ u1 = v1 + v2

In an elastic collision, the kinetic energy of the system before and after collision remains same.

$\frac{1}{2} mu_1^2+0=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2$

∴ $\frac{1}{2} m(v_1+v_2 )^2=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2$

∴ $\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2+mv_1 v_2=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2} mv_2^2$

∴ $mv$ ₁ $v$ ₂ = 0

It is impossible for the mass to be zero.
Because the second ball moves, velocity v2 cannot be zero.
As a result, the velocity of the first ball, v1, is zero, indicating that it comes to rest after collision.

<h3>What is collision ?</h3>

An elastic collision is a collision between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains constant. There is no net transfer of kinetic energy into other forms such as heat, noise, or potential energy in an ideal, fully elastic collision.
