Answer:

the hawk has flow 824.62 meters southwest of the mountain peak.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the distance we need to use the Pythagoras theorem

d^2 = 800^2 + 200^2

d= 824.6 m

we can find the direction by using the eq for a tangent

he opposite side is 200 m and the adjacent side is 800m

tan theta = opposite / adjacent

theta = arc tan (800/200)

The hawk is at a distance of 824.6m flying at an angle 76 degrees NE of the mountain peak.

The final location will be southwest of the mountain peek.

a2+b2=c2

a = 200

b= 800

c = √(2002+8002) = 824.62

So the hawk has flow 824.62 meters southwest of the mountain peak.

A box contains 8 green balls, 16 red balls, 10 white balls, and 6 pink balls.
Pepsi [2]
The probability of drawing a white ball is 1/4

Explanation:
When we solve for probability, we want to find out how many of something there is out of its total. So in this case, we want to see how many white balls there are out of the totals balls in the box. We already know that there are 10 white balls, so we need to figure out the total balls in the box, by adding up. 8 green balls + 16 red balls + 10 white balls + 6 pink balls = 40 balls in total. Now we know that the fraction would be 10/40, as there are 10 white balls out of 40 total balls. Finally, we simplify the fraction to 1/4, therefore the answer is B.

9.1 x 10-31 kg.
Reptile [31]
1 electron has a mass of 9.1 X 10-31 kg. How many electrons n does it take to make 1 kg?

(1 e)/(9.1 X 10-31 kg) = n/(1 kg)

So, n = 1.10 X 1030 electrons

Each electron has a charge of 1.6 X 10-19 C, where C stands for Coulombs. So, the n electrons have a charge of q = ne = (1.10 X 1030 electrons) X (1.6 X 10-19 C/electron) = 1.76 X 1011 C.
