Answer:

Solar cookers benefit the environment by:

Using clean, renewable, and readily available solar energy as fuel.

Preserving natural resources by not requiring the use of wood or other biomass fuels to cook.

Not producing dangerous emissions which pollute local environments and contribute to climate change.

A suspension bridge has twin towers that are 1300 feet apart. Each tower extends 180 feet above the road surface. The cables are
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

y = 17.04 ft

Explanation:

Since the cable touches the road at the mid point of two towers

so here we have vertex at that mid point taken to be origin

now the maximum height on the either side is given as

y = 180 ft

horizontal distance of the tower from mid point is given as

x = \frac{1300}{2} = 650 ft

now from the equation of parabola we have

y = k x^2

180 = k(650^2)

k = 4.26 \times 10^{-4}

now we have

y = (4.26 \times 10^{-4})x^2

now we need to find the height at distance of 200 ft from center

so we have

y = (4.26 \times 10^{-4})(200^2)

y = 17.04 ft

A bowling ball of mass 5 kg rolls down a slick ramp 20 meters long at a 30 degree angle to the horizontal. What is the work done
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The work done by gravity during the roll is 490.6 J

Explanation:

The work (W) is:

W = F*d

<em>Where</em>:

F: is the force

d: is the displacement = 20 m

The force is equal to the weight (W) in the x component:

F = W_{x} = mgsin(\theta)

<em>Where:</em>

m: is the mass of the bowling ball = 5 kg

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²    

θ: is the degree angle to the horizontal = 30°        

F = mgsin(\theta) = 5 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*sin(30) = 24.53 N    

Now, we can find the work:

W = F*d = 24.53 N*20 m = 490.6 J      

Therefore, the work done by gravity during the roll is 490.6 J.

I hope it helps you!

A radar antenna is tracking a satellite orbiting the earth. At a certain time, the radar screen shows the satellite to be 118 km
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

x component 60.85 m

y component 101.031 m

Explanation:

We have given distance r = 118 km

Angle which makes from ground = 58.9°

(a) X component of distance  is given by r_x=rcos\Theta =118\times cos58.9=118\times 0.5165=118=60.85m

(b) Y component of distance is given by r_Y=rcos\Theta =118\times sin58.9=118\times 0.8562=101.0316m

These are the x and y component of position vector

If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?
vovikov84 [41]

Complete Question

In an action movie, the villain is rescued from the ocean by grabbing onto the ladder hanging from a helicopter. He is so intent on gripping the ladder that he lets go of his briefcase of counterfeit money when he is 130 m above the water. If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?

Answer:

The speed of the helicopter is u  =  7.73 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The height at which he let go of the brief case is  h =  130 m  

    The  time taken before the the brief case hits the water is  t =  6 s

Generally the initial speed of the  briefcase (Which also the speed of the helicopter )before the man let go of it is  mathematically evaluated using kinematic equation as

      s = h+  u t +  0.5 gt^2

Here s  is the distance covered by the bag at sea level which is zero

      0 = 130+  u * (6) +  0.5  *  (-9.8) * (6)^2

=>    0 = 130+  u * (6) +  0.5  *  (-9.8) * (6)^2

=>   u  =  \frac{-130 +  (0.5 * 9.8 *  6^2) }{6}

=>   u  =  7.73 \  m/s

Light will not pass through a pair of polaroids when their axes are
Advocard [28]

Answer:

perpendicular

Explanation:

Polaroids are the material that is used to polarize the ray of light. Polaroid consists of microcrystals of herapathite.

When unpolarized light is passed through the Polaroid then ray appears to be of half the intensity and vibration of the ray in the single plane so, the emerged light is known as polarized light

Polaroids are used in the glasses to protect the eye from unwanted rays.

When Light does not pass through a pair of Polaroids then the axis of Polaroids will be perpendicular to the axis of ray.
