An observer (O) spots a plane (P) taking off from a local airport and flying at a 29° angle horizontal to her line of sight and

located directly above a tower (T). The observer also notices a bird (B) circling directly above her. If the distance from the plane (P) to the tower (T) is 6,000 ft., how far is the bird (B) from the plane (P)?
A diagram is shown with two parallel lines cut by a transversal. One angle is marked 29 degrees, one side is marked 6000 and another side is marked x.

A car traveling with constant speed travels 150 km in 7200 s what is speed of the car
spayn [35]

The speed of the car is exactly 150/7200 km/sec, or 125/6 meters/sec. 

In more familiar units, that speed is equivalent to ...

-- (20 and 5/6) meters/sec

-- 75 km/hour

A rope is tied to a box and used to pull the box 2.3 m along a horizontal floor. The rope makes an angle of 30∘ with the horizon
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

A) The work done by gravity is zero because displacement and the gravitational force are perpendicular to each other.

W= FS cosθ

θ= 90 ⇒cos90 = 0 ⇒W= 0

B) work done by tension

W= Tcosθ×S= 5cos30×2.30= 10J

C) Work done by friction force

W= f×s=1×2.30= 2.30 J

D) Work done by normal force is Zero because the displacement and the normal force are perpendicular to each other.

E) The net work done= Work done by tension in the rope - frictional work

=10-2.30= 7.7 J

Human eyes detect only a very small band of the electromagnetic spectrum. However, some animals and insects see in higher and lo
hoa [83]

Answer:

Squids = 450 - 490 nm (Moderate Frequency) (Blue)

Bees = 300 - 650 nm (Lower Frequency Bands)

Frogs = 280 - 580 nm (Very Low Frequency)

Explanation:

All of the above mentioned ranges are compared to that of humans.

I'm just surprised a little bit in the imagination that how these organisms see the world through their unique eyes. On the other hands, they are evolved like this just like we do so that may not be surprising enough. SIKE

A penny rides on top of a piston as it undergoes vertical simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 4.0cm. If the frequency is
aniked [119]

1) At the moment of being at the top, the piston will not only tend to push the penny up but will also descend at a faster rate at which the penny can reach in 'free fall', in that short distance. Therefore, at the highest point, the penny will lose contact with the piston. Therefore the correct answer is C.

2) To solve this problem we will apply the equations related to the simple harmonic movement, hence we have that the acceleration can be defined as

a = -\omega^2 A

Where,

a = Acceleration

A = Amplitude

\omega= Angular velocity

From a reference system in which the downward acceleration is negative due to the force of gravity we will have to

a = -g

-\omega^2 A = -g

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{g}{A}}

From the definition of frequency and angular velocity we have to

\omega = 2\pi f

f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{g}{A}}

f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{9.8}{4*10^{-2}}}

f = 2.5Hz

Therefore the maximum frequency for which the penny just barely remains in place for the full cycle is 2.5Hz

Communication with submerged submarines via radio waves is difficult because seawater is conductive and absorbselectromagnetic wa
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

D. 4000 km

Explanation:

f = Frequency of wave that is being transmitted = 76 Hz

\lambda = Wavelength of wave that is being transmitted

v = The velocity of electromagnetic waves through air = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

Velocity of a wave is given by

v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{3\times 10^8}{76}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=3947368.42105\ m=3947.36842105 km\approx 4000\ km

Hence, the approximate wavelength of the waves is 4000 km
