Answer:

The distance covered is 113.75 m

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the question:

The initial velocity of the train, v = 20 m/s

The final velocity of the train, v' = 6 m/s

Uniform deceleration, a = 1.6m/s^{2}

Or uniform acceleration, a = - 1.6m/s^{2}

<em>Here, the body decelerates, i.e., slows down at a uniform rate thus we take acceleration with negative sign.</em>

Now, to find the distance covered, s:

Using the eqn of Kinemetics:

v'^{2} = v^{2} + 2as

6^{2} = 20^{2} + 2(- 1.6)s

36 - 400 = - 3.6s

s = \frac{- 364}{- 3.6} = 113.75\ m

A lighthouse keeper views a small boat at an angle of depression of 62 degrees. The boat is 446 feet away from the base of the l
Genrish500 [490]

Answer: the height of the lighthouse is 838.8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The right angle triangle ABC illustrating the scenario is shown in the attached photo.

The angle of depression and angle A are alternate angles, hence, they are the equal.

The height, h of the lighthouse represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle. The distance of the boat from the foot of the lighthouse represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

To determine h, we would apply

the tangent trigonometric ratio.

Tan θ, = opposite side/adjacent side. Therefore,

Tan 62 = h/446

h = 446tan62 = 446 × 1.8807

h = 838.8 feet to the nearest tenth.

artcher [175]

This is a problem of fundamental counting principle. In a sequence of events, the total possible number of ways all events can performed is the product of the possible number of ways each individual event can be performed. So here there is one car in each place so there 4 possible cars to get the 1st place, 3 possible car for the 2nd place, 2 possible cars for 3rd place and 1 for the 4th place. The 4x3x2x1 = 24 different order
