Karen is sitting in a movie theater, 11 meters from the screen. The angle of elevation from her line of sight to the top of the

screen is 13°, and the angle of depression from her line of sight to the bottom of the screen is 49°. Find the height of the entire screen.

Answer:

15.2m

Explanation:

The height of the screen would be the sum of the elevation height and the depression height, both make a triangle with her distance to screen with their respective angles

H = h_e + h_d

H = 11tan13^0 + 11tan49^0

H = 11(tan13^0 + tan49^0)

H =11*1.38 = 15.2 m

On a cross-country trip, a couple drives 500 mi in 10 h on the first day, 380 mi in 8.0 h on the second day, and 600 mi in 15 h
Zepler [3.9K]

We know that the average speed is simply the ratio of the total distance travelled over the total duration of the trip.

total distance = 500 mi + 380 mi + 600 mi

total distance = 1,480 mi

 

total time = 10 h + 8 h + 15 h

total time = 33 h

 

So the average speed is therefore:

average speed = 1,480 mi / 33 h

<span>average speed = 44.85 mi / h</span>

The mass of a ship before launch is 55,000 metric tons. The ship is launched down a ramp and drops a total of 10 vertical meters
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

ΔT = 17.11 °C

Explanation:

In this case, we have a ship standing on a place with a given mass and it's about to be launched to a lock containing water.

At first, before launch, the ship has a potential energy, and when the ship hits the water after being launched, this potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.

So, let's calculate first the potential energy of the ship:

E = mgh   (1)

We have the mass, gravity and height, so we need to replace the given data here. Before we do that, let's remember to use the correct units. A ton is 1000 kg, so replacing and converting we have:

E = (55000 ton * 1000 kg/ton) * (9.8 m/s²) * 10 m

E = 5.39x10⁹ J

Now this energy will be the same when the ship hits the water, only that is kinetic energy that will result in the rise of temperature. To get this rise we use the following expression:

E = m * C * ΔT   (2)

We have the energy, the mass of water (assuming density of water as 1 kg/m³) and the specific heat, so, replacing in (2) and solving for ΔT we have:

ΔT = E / m * C    (3)

ΔT = 5.39x10⁹ / 4200 * 75000

<h2>ΔT = 17.11 °C</h2>

Hope this helps

Part B
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

While slavery was the major issue separating the North and South, it was not slavery itself that sparked the conflict. The South wanted to secede from the Union, and the North refused. While President Abraham Lincoln personally opposed slavery, he recognized that it was legal under the U.S. Constitution at the time. He also recognized that few in the North were ready to go to war to free the slaves. For Lincoln and the northern majority, preservation of the Union was the foremost goal.

As a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit. the current flowing through a resistor isa) increasingb) decreasingc) constant
Montano1993 [528]
<h2>Answer: decreasing</h2>

An RC circuit is an electrical circuit composed of resistors and capacitors, where the charging time T of the circuit is proportional to the magnitude of the electrical resistance R and the capacity C of the capacitor.  

As shown below:

T=R.C

In this context, the electrical resistance is the opposition to the flow of electrons when moving through a conductor.

Therefore:

<h2>When a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit, the current flowing through a resistor <u>decreases</u>.</h2>

And the correct option is b.
