complete question:
An observer at the top of a 462-ft cliff measures the angle of depression from the top of the cliff to a point on the ground to be 5°. What is the distance from the base of the cliff to the point on the ground? Round to the nearest foot
Answer:
a ≈ 5281 ft
Explanation:
The observer at the top of a 462 ft cliff measures the angle of depression from the top of the cliff to a point on the ground to be 5°.
The angle of depression form the top of the cliff = 5°
The 5° is outside the triangle formed . To find the angle in the triangle we have to subtract 5° from 90°. 90° - 5° = 85° Note sum of an angle on a right angle is 90°.
using SOHCAHTOA principle we can solve for the distance from the base of the cliff to the point on the ground(a)
tan 85° = opposite / adjacent
tan 85° = a / 462
cross multiply
462 × tan 85° = a
a = 11.4300523 × 462
a = 5280.66 ft
a ≈ 5281 ft
A physical change in something doesn't change what the it is. For example, if you break glass, it will still be glass. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new thing is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed. For example, when you burn a log. The carbon in the log is reacting to the oxygen to create ashe and smoke
The total work done is 5980 Joules and the power expended is 57 Watts.
<h3>What is work done?</h3>
The work done is the work done in the gravitational field as the bucket is raised up Thus work required to remove the bucket Wb;
Wb = 13.9 kg * 25.9 m * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3530 Joules
Height of the center of mass of chain = 25.9 / 2 = 12.95 m
Work done by the chain Wc;
Wc = 12.95 * 19.3 * 9.8 = 2450 Joules
Total work = 3530 + 2450 = 5980 Joules
Power expended = W / t = 5980 J / 105 sec = 57 J/s = 57 Watts
