The sun is 27 degree above the horizon. It makes a 60 m long shadow of a tall tree.

Physics
1 answer:
mestny [16]3 years ago

Answer:

 h = 30.57 m

Explanation:

given,

angle made with horizon, θ= 27°

Length of the shadow,L = 60 m

now,

the height of the tree would be equal to

tan \theta = \dfrac{height\ of tree}{shadow\ length}

tan 27^0 = \dfrac{h}{60}

 h = 60 x tan 27°

 h = 30.57 m

hence, height of the tree is equal to 30.57 m

A monkey running through the jungle goes 0.198 km straight to the East, then turns 15.8° deflection from straight East toward th
inn [45]

Answer:

|\vec r|=339.82\ m

\theta=-6.67^o

Explanation:

<u>Displacement </u>

It's a vector magnitude that measures the space traveled by a particle between an initial and a final position. The total displacement can be obtained by adding the vectors of each individual displacement. In the case of two displacements:

\vec r=\vec r_1+\vec r_2

Given a vector as its polar coordinates (r,\theta), the corresponding rectangular coordinates are computed with

x=rcos\theta

y=rsin\theta

And the vector is expressed as

\vec z==

The monkey first makes a displacement given by (0.198 km,0°). The angle is 0 because it goes to the East, the zero-reference for angles. Thus the first displacement is

\vec r_1==\ km=\ m

The second move is (145 m , -15.8°). The angle is negative because it points South of East. The second displacement is

\vec r_2==\ m

The total displacement is

\vec r=\ m+\ m

\vec r=\ m

In (magnitude,angle) form:

|\vec r|=\sqrt{337.52^2+(-39.48)^2}=339.82\ m

\boxed{|\vec r|=339.82\ m}

\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{-39.48}{337.52}=-0.1169

\boxed{\theta=-6.67^o}

What is the force felt by the electrons and the nuclei in the rod when the external field described in the problem introduction
fomenos

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the uploaded image

Answer:

The nuclei experience a force that will move it to the right of the conductor rod while the electrons experience a force that will move it to the left side of the conductor rod.

Explanation:

The force that act on the charges(both the positive and the negative charge ) is Mathematically expressed as

                      F = qE   => E = F/q

where F is the force, q is the charge and E is the electric field

we can see that the force is directly proportional to the electric field,so an increase in the electric field would increase the force.

we can also see that the electric field is given as force per unit charge and generally the direction of this field is taken to be the direction of the force it would exert on a positive test charge

Now from the question we are being told that the external electric field is the direction of the positive x axis

Hence this field would drive the positive charge i.e the nuclei to the right.

In order to further explain let consider this

Generally the electric field is always radially outward  originating from a positive point charge and radially in toward a negative point charge.

what  this means for this question, is that the positive point charge is on the left side of the electric field while the negative point charge is at the right side of the field.

According to Coulomb's law which states that unlike term attract while like terms repel, it means that  the electron would move to the left of the conductor rod   while the nuclei would move to the right side of the conductor rod.

Compute the density in g/cm^3 of a piece of metal that had mass of 0.485 kg and a volume of 52cm^3
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

9.3 g/cm³

Explanation:

First, convert kg to g:

0.485 kg × (1000 g / kg) = 485 g

Density is mass divided by volume:

D = (485 g) / (52 cm³)

D = 9.33 g/cm³

Rounding to two significant figures, the density is 9.3 g/cm³.
