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

A car is moving in uniform circular motion. If the cars speed were to double to keep the car moving with the same radius the acc
Stells [14]

Answer:

<em>The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4</em>

<em>Correct choice: B.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Circular Motion</u>

The circular motion is described when an object rotates about a fixed point called center. The distance from the object to the center is the radius. There are other magnitudes in the circular motion like the angular speed, tangent speed, and centripetal acceleration. The formulas are:

v_t=w\ r

\displaystyle a_c=\frac{v_t^2}{r}

If the speed is doubled and the radius is the same, then

\displaystyle a_c=\frac{(2v_t)^2}{r}

\displaystyle a_c=4\frac{v_t^2}{r}

The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4

Correct choice: B.
