A man stands on his balcony, 130 feet above the ground. He looks at the ground, with his sight line forming an angle of 70° with

the building, and sees a bus stop. The function d = 130 sec θ models the distance from the man to any object given his angle of sight θ. How far is the bus stop from the man? Round your answer to the nearest foot.

Answer:

d =  380 feet

Explanation:

Height of man = perpendicular= 130 feet

Angle of depression = ∅ = 70 °

distance to bus stop from man = hypotenuse = d = 130 sec∅

As sec ∅ = 1 / cos∅

so d = 130 sec∅    or d = 130 / cos∅

d = 130 / cos(70°)

d =  380 feet

A certain satellite travels in an approximately circular orbit of radius 2.0 × 106 m with a period of 7 h 11 min. Calculate the
kap26 [50]

Answer: Mass of the planet, M= 8.53 x 10^8kg

Explanation:

Given Radius = 2.0 x 106m

Period T = 7h 11m

Using the third law of kepler's equation which states that the square of the orbital period of any planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.

This is represented by the equation

T^2 = ( 4π^2/GM) R^3

Where T is the period in seconds

T = (7h x 60m + 11m)(60 sec)

= 25860 sec

G represents the gravitational constant

= 6.6 x 10^-11 N.m^2/kg^2 and M is the mass of the planet

Making M the subject of the formula,

M = (4π^2/G)*R^3/T^2

M = (4π^2/ 6.6 x10^-11)*(2×106m)^3(25860s)^2

Therefore Mass of the planet, M= 8.53 x 10^8kg

Answer:

An annular Solar Eclipse

Explanation:

Solar eclipse is an event that occurs naturally on Earth when the moon in its orbit is positioned between the Earth and the Sun.Solar Eclipse can be total ,partial or annular.In the total solar eclipse, the moon completely covers the sun where as in the annular solar eclipse the moon covers the center of the Sun leaving outer edges of the Sun to be visible forming the<em> ring of fire.</em>In partial solar eclipse the Earth moves through the lunar penumbra as the moon moves between Earth and Sun.The moon blocks only some parts of the solar disk.Annular solar eclipse happens during new moon and the moon is at its farthest position from the Earth called Apogee.

Some hydrogen gas is enclosed within a chamber being held at 200∘c with a volume of 0.0250 m3. the chamber is fitted with a mova
Mrac [35]

Answer: The final volume V₂ of the container is  0.039 m³.

Explanation:

Since the temperature is constant, the gas would expand isothermally.

For isothermal expansion,

P₁V₁=P₂V₂

Where, P₁ and P₂ are the initial and final pressure and V₁ and V₂ are initial and final volume.

It is given that:

V₁ = 0.0250 m³

P₁ = 1.5 × 10⁶ Pa

P₂ = 0.950 × 10⁶ Pa

V₂ = ?

⇒ 1.5 × 10⁶ Pa × 0.0250 m³ = 0.950 × 10⁶ Pa × V₂

⇒V₂ = 0.039 m³

Hence, the final volume V₂ of the container is  0.039 m³.
