A radio station tower was built in two sections. From a point 87 feet from the base of the tower, the angle of elevation of the

top of the first section is 25 degrees, and the angle of the top of the second section is 40 degrees. to the nearest foot, what is the height of the top section of the tower?

Answer:

tan theta = H / B        where H is height of triangle and B the length of base

H1 = 87 * tan 25 =  40.6 feet

H2 = 87 * tan 40 = 73 feet

H2 - H1 = 32.4 feet

8. When a 100 N bag of nails hangs motionless from a single vertical strand of rope, how many newtons of tension are exerted in
Svetllana [295]

If the bag is motionless, then it's not accelerating up or down.
That fact right there tells you that the net vertical force on it
is zero.  So the sum of any upward forces on it is exactly equal
to the downward gravitational force ... the bag's "weight".

If the bag is suspended from a single rope, then the tension
in the rope must be equal to the 100-N weight of the bag.

And if there are four ropes holding it up, then the sum of
the four tensions is 100N.  If the ropes have been carefully
adjusted to share the load equally, then the tension is 25N
in each rope.

blondinia [14]

Personally, I know that I don't however it all depends on the person's lifestyle, health, and resoucres, such as if they are able to complete the excersise or have enough money fore equpemnt. To be safe, I would say that the majority of people do follow the guidelines although they may manipulate it to fit their best interest.

In a race, Usain Bolt accelerates at
jeka94

Answer:

65.87 s

Explanation:

For the first time,

Applying

v² = u²+2as.............. Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance

From the question,

Given:  u = 0 m/s (from rest), a = 1.99 m/s², s = 60 m

Substitute these values into equation 1

v² = 0²+2(1.99)(60)

v² = 238.8

v = √238.8

v = 15.45 m/s

Therefore, time taken for the first 60 m is

t = (v-u)/a............ Equation 2

t = (15.45-0)/1.99

t = 7.77 s

For the final 40 meter,

t = (v-u)/a

Given: v = 0 m/s(decelerates), u = 15.45 m/s, a = -0.266 m/s²

Substitute into the equation above

t = (0-15.45)/-0.266

t = 58.1 seconds

Hence total time taken to cover the distance

T = 7.77+58.1

T = 65.87 s
