Answer:

(a) Angle is 42.865°

(b) t=12.54s

Explanation:

The jet plane is at 5870m from Earth surface

The jet traveling at speed of 1.47 Mach

Speed of Sound v=343 m/s

Part (a)

As we know :

Sin\alpha =\frac{v}{vs}\\

Substitute the given values

Sin\alpha =\frac{v}{1.47v}\\ Sin\alpha =\frac{343m/s}{1.47(343m/s)} \\Sin\alpha =0.68027\\\alpha =Sin^{-1}(0.68027)\\\alpha  =42.865^{o}

Angle is 42.865°

Part (b)

As the distance given as:

d=vst

By using some trigonometry

d=\frac{h}{tan\alpha }

Where h is the height of jet plane

Thus

t=\frac{h}{tan\alpha } \frac{1}{vs}

Substitute the given values

So

t=\frac{5870m}{tan(42.865)}\frac{1}{1.47(343m/s)}  \\t=12.54s

Analogue signals transmit information for such things as _____________.
ivann1987 [24]

Transmission of information in ANY form can be done digitally
or analoguely.

Beginning about 30 years ago, everything slowly started changing
to digital.  Today, all commercial satellite communication, all optical
fiber communication, all internet communication, all computer
communication, all commercial cable communication, all commercial
television, and much of the telephone system, are all digital. 

On your computer ... .pdf,  .jpg, .mp3  etc.  are all digital methods of
moving and storing information.

AM and FM radio are an interesting subject.  They're all still analog.
They could easily be changed to all digital, and it would be a big
improvement, both for the broadcasters and for the listeners. 
BUT ... every AM and FM radio that anybody has now would be
obsolete.   Every single radio would either need to be replaced,
OR you'd need to add a digital decoder to every radio, like we
had to do with our TV sets a few years ago when television
suddenly became all digital.  With AM and FM radios, the decoders
would be bigger, and would cost more, than most of the radios.

And that's why commercial radio broadcasting is still analog.
