Answer:

Drawing the triangle:

H / x = tan 52.2 = 1.29

H / (4.6 - x) = tan 28.8 = .550

H = 1.29 x

H = .55 * 4.6 - .55 x

1.84 x = 2.53        combining equations

x = 1.38

4.6 - 1.38 = 3.22

Total base of triangle = 1.38 + 3.22 = 4.6

H / x = tan 52,2 = 1.29

H = 1.29 * 1.38 = 1.78 height of triangle

Check:

1.78 / 3.22 = tan 28.9    

This agrees with the given value of 28.8

Photovoltaic cells: a) have become more economical to produce and use over the past 25 years. b) are the most efficient means of
Yanka [14]

Photovoltaic cells are the most efficient means of converting solar energy to electricity. Option b is correct.

<h3>What is a cell?</h3>

A cell is a voltage and current-producing device that consists of a single anode and cathode separated by an electrolyte.

One or more cells can make up a battery. One cell, for example, is one AA battery.

Light intensity on a solar cell is often measured in "suns," with one sun roughly equivalent to 1 kW/m².

Concentrated sunlight improves the ratio of current generated while the device is lighted vs when it is dark, hence enhancing output voltage and efficiency.

Photovoltaic cells are the most efficient means of converting solar energy to electricity.

Hence, option b is correct.

To learn more about the cell refer to:

Compare physical changes and chemical changes
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The difference between a physical reaction and a chemical reaction is composition. In a chemical reaction, there is a change in the composition of the substances in question; in a physical change there is a difference in the appearance, smell, or simple display of a sample of matter without a change in composition. Although we call them physical "reactions," no reaction is actually occurring. In order for a reaction to take place, there must be a change in the elemental composition of the substance in question. Thus, we shall simply refer to physical "reactions" as physical changes from now on.

Explanation:

Physical changes are limited to changes that result in a difference in display without changing the composition. Some common changes (but not limited to) are:

Texture

Color

Temperature

Shape

Change of State (Boiling Point and Melting Point are significant factors in determining this change.)

Physical properties include many other aspects of a substance. The following are (but not limited to) physical properties.

Luster

Malleability

Ability to be drawn into a thin wire

Density

Viscosity

Solubility

Mass

Volume

How many electrons would it take to equal the mass of a proton? Use two significant figures.
mezya [45]
<span>How many electrons would it take to equal the mass of a proton:
Here's one way of finding the value of it:
=> number of electrons is equivalent to 1 proton.
Let's have an example.
1.6726*10 -24g
_______________
     1 proton
______________
9.109*10- ^28g
_______________
1 electron

Based on the given example above, the electrons is 1 839 per 1 proton.
It's about 1800 electrons/proton.</span>

What condition is required for cloud formation in the atmosphere?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer: To form a cloud, the air that rises must cool to the point where some of the water vapor molecules "clump together" at a faster pace than they are pulled apart by their thermal energy. These molecules then condense to form the clouds and water droplets.
