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 3.0-kg object moves to the right with a speed of 2.0 m/s. It collides in a perfectly elastic collision with a 6.0-kg object mo
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the system after the collision is 9 J.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of object 1, m₁ = 3 kg

Speed of object 1, v₁ = 2 m/s

Mass of object 2, m₂ = 6 kg

Speed of object 2, v₂ = -1 m/s (it is moving in left)

Since, the collision is elastic. The kinetic energy of the system before the collision is equal to the kinetic energy of the system after the collision. Let it is E. So,

E=\dfrac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2+\dfrac{1}{2}m_2v_1^2

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\ kg\times (2\ m/s)^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 6\ kg\times (-1\ m/s)^2

E = 9 J

So, the kinetic energy of the system after the collision is 9 J. Hence, this is the required solution.

Rod A and rod B are cylindrical rods made of the same metal. amd they differ only in size. Rod B has double the length and doubl
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

it would take rod B twice as much time

Explanation:

it would take rod B twice as much time as it is twice as thick and twice as long. Due to this reason it would take the electric charge not only more time but even more voltage to travel through the rod
