Answer:

South = 1.5m

West =4.2m

Explanation:

Kindly see attached a rough draft of the situation

Step one

Given data

From the sketch the direction of the player is along the resultant of the triangle, corresponding to the Hypotenuse

Step two:

Hence for an opponent to tackle him towards the south, he must be at

sin θ= opp/hyp

sin 20=x/4.5

x=sin 20*4.5

x=0.342*4.5

x= 1.5m

Also, for an opponent to tackle him towards the south, he must be at

cos θ= adj/hyp

cos 20=y/4.5

y=cos 20*4.5

y=0.93*4.5

y= 4.2m

MariettaO [177]

Complete question:

while hunting in a cave a bat emits sounds wave of frequency 39 kilo hartz were moving towards a wall with a constant velocity of 8.32 meters per second take the speed of sound as 340 meters per second. calculate the frequency​ reflected off the wall to the bat?

Answer:

The frequency reflected by the stationary wall to the bat is 41 kHz

Explanation:

Given;

frequency emitted by the bat, = 39 kHz

velocity of the bat, v_b = 8.32 m/s

speed of sound in air, v = 340 m/s

The apparent frequency of sound striking the wall is calculated as;

f' = f(\frac{v}{v- v_b} )\\\\f' = 39,000(\frac{340}{340 -8.32} )\\\\f' = 39978.29 \ Hz

The frequency reflected by the stationary wall to the bat is calculated as;

f_s = f'(\frac{v + v_b}{v} )\\\\f_s = 39978.29(\frac{340 + 8.32}{340} )\\\\f_s = 40,956.56 \ Hz

f_s\approx 41 \ kHz

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Mass of the cart = 146 kg

Explanation:

A cart is pulled by a force of 250 N at an angle of 35° above the horizontal.

The cart accelerates at 1.4 m/s² horizontally.

Horizontal force = Fcosθ = 250 cos35° = 204.79N

We have F = ma

Substituting

        204.79 = m x 1.4  

              m = 146.28 kg = 146 kg

Mass of the cart = 146 kg

In some plants, the pistils don’t Form until a few days after the stamens do.How might this keep a plant from self pollinating
KATRIN_1 [288]

For a flower to be pollinated, pollen from an anther (which is located at the top of the stamen) needs to reach a stigma (at the top of the pistle.) Some plants are genetically capable of pollinating themselves if their own pollen reaches their own stigma; some plants are not capable of self pollination under any circumstances.

For plants that can genetically self pollinate, but would prefer not to, they can avoid this by having their pistil and pollen/stamens mature at different times. If the stamens mature first, the pollen will be dispersed by animals or wind or whatever dispersal mechanism it relies on. Then by the time the pistil is ready to be pollinated, there is no pollen left in that flower to land on the stigma.

Determine the potential difference between the ends of the wire of resistance 5 Ω if 720 C passes through it per minute.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistance, R = 5 ohms

Charge, q = 720 C

Time, t = 1 min = 60 s

We know that the charge flowing per unit charge is called current in the circuit. It is given by :

I = 12 A

Let V is the potential difference between the ends of a wire. It can be calculated using Ohm's law as :

V = IR

V = 60 Volts

So, the potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.
