Answer:

The maximum detection range is 39.75 km

Explanation:

Given that;

Antenna height h1 = 40 m

Target height  ( patrol boat mast ) h2 = 11 m

Using RADAR, what is the maximum detection range = ?

Using RADAR

we know that; Maximum detection range = (√17h1 + √17h2) km

where h1 and h2 are heights of the antenna and target height in meters

so we substitute in our values

Maximum detection range = (√(17 × 40) + √(17 × 11)) km

Maximum detection range = (√680 + √187) km

Maximum detection range = (26.0768 + 13.6747) km

Maximum detection range = (26.0768 + 13.6747) km

Maximum detection range = 39.75 km

Therefore, The maximum detection range is 39.75 km

a scale model of the solar system where 50 cm represents 1.0x10 to the fifth km is actual distance what would be the dimension o
Fofino [41]

The distance between Mars and the Sun in the scale model would be 1140 m

Explanation:

In this scale model, we have:

x_1 = 50 cm represents an actual distance of

d_1 = 1.0\cdot 10^5 km

The actual distance between Mars and the Sun is 228 million km, therefore

d_2=228\cdot 10^6 km

On the scale model, this would corresponds to a distance of x_2.

Therefore, we can write the following proportion:

\frac{x_1}{d_1}=\frac{x_2}{d_2}

And solving for x_2, we find:

x_2=\frac{x_1 d_2}{d_1}=\frac{(50)(228\cdot 10^6)}{1\cdot 10^5}=1.14\cdot 10^5 cm = 1140 m

17. Matthew has a piece of wood with mass of 278 g and a volume of 375 cm^3. What is the wood’s density? a. Step 1: Formula ____
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Density =0.74 g/cm^{3}

Explanation:

Step 1: Formula

 Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Step 2: Data

m=278 g

v=375 cm^{3}

Step 3:Solve

d= \frac{278}{375} g/cm^{3}

d=0.74 g/cm^{3}

4. A 62.0-kg person, standing on the diving board, dives straight down into the water. Just before striking the water, her speed
Alekssandra [29.7K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Moment. The moment in terms of the Force and the time can be expressed as

\Delta P = F\Delta t

F = Force

\Delta t = Time

At the same time the moment can be expressed in terms of mass and velocity, mathematically it can be given as

P = m \Delta v

Where

m = Mass

\Delta v = Change in velocity

Our values are given as

\Delta t=1.65s

By equating the two equations we can find the Force,

F\Delta t = m\Delta v

F = \frac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t}

F = \frac{62(1.1-5.5)}{1.65}

Therefore, the net average force will be:

F = - 165N

The negative symbol indicates that the direction of the force is upwards.
