A​ blimp, suspended in the air at a height of 600 ​feet, lies directly over a line from a sports stadium to a planetarium. If th

e angle of depression from the blimp to the stadium is 38degrees° and from the blimp to the planetarium is 23degrees°​, find the distance between the sports stadium and the planetarium.

Answer:

1946 ft

Explanation:

The distance is the addition of the distance gotten from both triangles.

d = x + y

d = 1178 ft + 768 ft

d = 1946 ft

Attached is a picture showing how I arrived at the answer

A girl and a boy are riding on a merry go round that is turning at a constant rate. The girl is near the outer edge, and the boy
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The girl has greater tangential acceleration

Explanation:

The angular acceleration (\alpha) of the merry go round is equal to the rate of the change of the angular velocity, \omega:

\alpha = \frac{d\omega}{dt}

Since all the points of the merry go round complete 1 circle in the same time, the angular velocity of each point of the merry go round is the same, and so all the points also have the same angular acceleration.

The tangential acceleration instead is given by

a_t = \alpha r

where

\alpha is the angular acceleration

r is the distance from the centre of the merry go round

Since the girl is near the outer edge and the boy is closer to the centre, the value of r for the girl is larger than for the boy, so the girl has greater tangential acceleration.

The world's most powerful laser is the LFEX laser in Japan. It can produce a 2 petawatt(2×10^15W) laser pulse that last for 1 ps
kogti [31]

Answer:

2.82942\times 10^{24}\ W\m^2

Explanation:

d = Diameter of spot = 30 μm

r = Radius of spot = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{30}{2}=15\ mu m

P = Power of the laser = 2\times 10^{15}\ W

A = Area = \pi r^2

Intensity is given by

I=\frac{P}{A}\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{2\times 10^{15}}{\pi\times (15\times 10^{-6})^2}\\\Rightarrow I=2.82942\times 10^{24}\ W/m^2

The light intensity within this spot is 2.82942\times 10^{24}\ W/m^2

An automatic dryer spins wet clothes at an angular speed of 5.2 rad/s. Starting from rest, the dryer reaches its operating speed
Dvinal [7]
<h2>Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

     Initial velocity, u =  0 rad/s

     Final velocity, v = 5.2 rad/s    

     Time, t = ?

     Acceleration, a = 3.2 rad/s²

     Substituting

                      v = u + at  

                      5.2 = 0 + 3.2 x t

                      t = 1.625 s

Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.
