A flagpole is 6.8m tall. A cable is attached from ground to the top of the pole such that it makes a 66 degree angle with the po

le. How long is the cable? How far from the pole is the cable attached to the ground? If the cable is attached 4.2m closer to the pole, what is the new angle between pole and cable?

Answer:

Length of cable = 16.7 m

Distance from ground = 15.4

New angle between pole and cable = 58.5 degrees

Explanation:

The flagpole forms a right-angled triangle with the cable and the ground.

Let the adjacent side be the flagpole, the hypotenuse be the cable and the ground be the opposite side.

hypotenuse = h

adjacent = 6.8 m

distance from ground = d

angle = 66.0

cos 66 = 6.8/h

h = 6.8/cos 66

h = 16.7 m

tan 66 = d /6.8

d = 6.8 * tan 66

d = 15.3 m

If the cable is brought 4.2 m closer to the pole, new distance = 15.3 - 4.2 = 11.1 m

let new angle be x

tan x = 11.1/6.8

x = tan⁻¹ (11.1/6.8)

x = 58.5 degrees

seraphim [82]

A device employing a lens, shutter, and persistent light source that projects images from glass slides onto a flat white wall or cloth drape hung in the dark is image projection began with the MAGIC LANTERN

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The magic lantern works on the sliding runner technology. The image can be made larger in size and can be projected with the help of an optical device. When the technology of motion toy become older, this magic lantern is the modernized version of the motion toy technology. The modernization of the magic lantern was as an alternative of to motion-toy technology.

The photos and images that are taken can be increased in the size and projection can be made. These images can be enlarged in size by the help of a photographic images. this helps in image and also in taking photographs. This photographic image can be attached with Magic lantern. A long slide of glass helps in projecting the image on the walls or cloth drapes using magic lantern. This gives life to Shadows.

A body of mass 2 kg is moving in the positive X-Direction with a speed of 4 m/s collides head on with an another body of mass 3
Inga [223]
m_1=2 \\ m_2=3 \\ v_1=4 \\ v_2=1 \\ v\text{ =speed after collision (to be determined)}.

The momentul of the system preserves:

m_1v_1-m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v \ \ \ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ \ \ \ v=\dfrac{m_1v_1-m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}.

Ok, we found the speed after the collision.
Now, because the impact is plastic, it produces heat, sound energy and who knows what other forms of energy. We denote all this wasted energy with E.

Now, we write the energy conservation law:

\dfrac{m_1v_1^2}{2}+\dfrac{m_2v^2_2}{2}=\dfrac{(m_1+m_2)v^2}{2}+E

From the above equation, you find E,  and then conclude that the sound energy can certainly not be greater than this.
