A mountaintop is a height y above the level ground. A woman measures the angle of elevation of the mountaintop to be θ when she

is a horizontal distance x from the mountaintop. After walking a distance d closer to the mountain, she measures the angle of elevation of the mountaintop to be φ. Neglecting the height of the woman’s eyes above the ground, draw a well-labeled diagram representing this situation and find an expression for the height of the mountain, y, in terms of d, φ, and θ. Note that your expression cannot contain x.

Let t = Theta and p = Phi
Tan t = y/x    Then x =y/Tant.
Tant = y/(x-d)  x-d = y/Tanp
y/Tant  - d = y/Tanp
y -d*Tanr = y*Tant/Tanp
y-y*Tant/Tanp  =  d*Tanr
y(1 - Tanr/Tanp = d*Tant

y = d*Tant/(1-Tant/Tanp)

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

radius of electron(r)=5.3\times 10^{-11} m

centripetal acceleration (a_c)=9\times 10^22 m/s^2

we know

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{r\times a_c}

v=\sqrt{5.3\times 10^{-11}\times 9\times 10^{22}}

v=\sqrt{47.7\times 10^11}

v=21.84\times 10^5 m/s

(b)For n=10

r=100\times 5.3\times 10^{-11} m\approx 5.3\times 10^{-9} m

a_c=10^4\times 9\times 10^{22} m/s^2

a_c=9\times 10^{26} m/s^2

v=\sqrt{r\times a_c}

v=\sqrt{9\times 10^{26}\times 5.3\times 10^{-9}}

v=21.84\times 10^8 m/s
