Answer:

80.386 degrees

Explanation:

We use the cosine equation here (which is the adjacent side of the unknown angle divided by the hypotenuse

The adjacent side = 699ft

The hypotenuse = 1034ft

using cos∅ = Adjacent/hypotenuse

where ∅ is the unknown angle

cos ∅ = 699/1034 = 0.167

∅ = arccos 0.167 = 80.368°

As easy as one can imagine

In the diagram, R1 = 40.0 ,
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

51 Ω.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance of R₁ and R₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Resistor 1 (R₁) = 40 Ω

Resistor 3 (R₃) = 70.8 Ω

Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) =?

Since the two resistors are in parallel connection, their equivalent can be obtained as follow:

R₁ₙ₃ = R₁ × R₃ / R₁ + R₃

R₁ₙ₃ = 40 × 70.8 / 40 + 70.8

R₁ₙ₃ = 2832 / 110.8

R₁ₙ₃ = 25.6 Ω

Finally, we shall determine the equivalent resistance of the group. This can be obtained as follow:

Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) = 25.6 Ω

Resistor 2 (R₂) = 25.4 Ω

Equivalent Resistance (Rₑq) =?

Rₑq = R₁ₙ₃ + R₂ (series connection)

Rₑq = 25.6 + 25.4

Rₑq = 51 Ω

Therefore, the equivalent resistance of the group is 51 Ω.

Which of the following are true about a "simple compressible system"? It cannot be a mixture of different substances (e.g. oxyge
fomenos

Explanation:

The volume of a simple compressible system is not fixed. At a state of equilibrium, there should be uniformity in the entire system.

From the question we have here, these are the correct options:

1. It cannot be a mixture of different substances (e.g. oxygen and nitrogent)

2. It can be composed of any phases of a substance: solid, liquid, and/or gas

3. It's state is specified if given two independent, intensive thermodynamic properties.

A satellite does not need any fuel to revolve around the earth?why​
Nadusha1986 [10]

They don't need gas because satellites rotate around the world using our planet's gravitational force as centripetal force. That as well as since there is no air in space, it doesn't have to work against air resistance. This way it doesn't lose energy by going around and around the Earth.

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED day! :-)

In Applied Life Data Analysis (Wiley, 1982), Wayne Nelson presents the breakdown time of an insulating fluid between electrodes
muminat

Answer:

18.375

Explanation:

Mean = total of measured values / no of elements of sample

Total = .15 + .89 +1.11+1.46 +2.78 + 3.12 + 4.30 + 4.59 + 4.92 + 6.42 + 7.20+8.04+8.21+12.13+31.86+32.53+33.82+36.60+ 72.99

= 273.03

Mean = 273 .03 / 19

= 14.37

( .15 - 14.37 )² +( 0.89 - 14.37 )²+( 1.11- 14.37 )²+( 1.46 - 14.37 )²+( 2.78 - 14.37 )²+( 3.12 - 14.37 )²+( 4.30 - 14.37 )²+( 4.59 - 14.37 )²+( 4.92 - 14.37 )²+( 6.42 - 14.37 )²+( 7.20 - 14.37 )²+( 8.04 - 14.37 )²+( 8.21 - 14.37 )²+( 12.13 - 14.37 )²+( 31.86 - 14.37 )²+( 32.53 - 14.37 )²+( 33.82 - 14.37 )²+( 36.60 - 14.37 )²+( 72.99 - 14.37 )²

= 202.20 +181.71+ 175.82 + 166.66+ 134.32 + 126.56 + 101.40 +95.64 + 89.30 +63.20 +51.40 +40.06 +37.94+5.01 +305.90 +329.78 +378.30 +494.17 +3436.30

=6415.67

Standard deviation =

\sqrt{\frac{6415.67}{19} }

= 18.375
