Daniel is 50.0 meters away from a building. He observes that his line-of-sight to the tip of the building makes an angle of 63.0

° with the horizontal. What is the height of the building?

Since his line of sight 63 degrees makes with the tip of the building

Tan63° =  height of building / Horizontal distance

tan63° =  Height / 50

50tan63° = Height

Height = 50tan63°

Height ≈ 50*1.9626

Height ≈ 98.13 m

Height of the building is ≈ 98.13 m. Mind you in solving for this height we have neglected the height of Daniel.

The height of building actually should be 98.13 m plus the height of Daniel. Since the 63° was measured from his eye level.

Is it possible for two pieces of the same metal to have different recrystallization temperatures? Is it possible for recrystalli
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Two pieces of the same metal can have different recrystallization temperatures if the pieces  have been cold worked to different amounts. The piece of work cold worked to greater extend will have more internal energy to drive the recrystalline process and lower recrystallization temperature.

Yes, its possible that recrystallization to take place in some regions of a part before it does in other regions of the same part if the work has been unevenly strained or if the part have different thickness at different sections.

A 13-cm-diameter cd has a mass of 25 g . part a what is the cd's moment of inertia for rotation about a perpendicular axis throu
faltersainse [42]
<span>Answer: For a disc, the moment of inertia about the perpendicular axis through the center is given by 0.5MR^2. where M is the mass of the disc and R is the radius of the disc. For the axis through the edge, use parallel axis theorem. I = I(axis through center of mass) + M(distance between the axes)^2 = 0.5MR^2 + MR^2 (since the axis through center of mass is the axis through the center) = 1.5 MR^2</span>

A very long uniform line of charge has charge per unit length λ1 = 4.80 μC/m and lies along the x-axis. A second long uniform li
Elodia [21]

Answer:

a) E=228391.8 N/C

b) E=-59345.91N/C

Explanation:

You can use Gauss law to find the net electric field produced by both line of charges.

\int \vec{E_1}\cdot d\vec{r}=\frac{\lambda_1}{\epsilon_o}\\\\E_1(2\pi r)=\frac{\lambda_1}{\epsilon_o}\\\\E_1=\frac{\lambda_1}{2\pi \epsilon_o r_1}\\\\\int \vec{E_2}\cdot d\vec{r}=\frac{\lambda_2}{\epsilon_o}\\\\E_2=\frac{\lambda_2}{2\pi \epsilon_o r_2}

Where E1 and E2 are the electric field generated at a distance of r1 and r2 respectively from the line of charges.

The net electric field at point r will be:

E=E_1+E_2=\frac{1}{2\pi \epsilon_o}(\frac{\lambda_1}{r_1}+\frac{\lambda_2}{r_2})

a) for y=0.200m, r1=0.200m and r2=0.200m:

E=\frac{1}{2\pi(8.85*10^{-12}C^2/Nm^2)}[\frac{4.80*10^{-6}C}{0.200m}-\frac{2.26*10^{-6}C}{0.200m}}]=228391.8N/C

b) for y=0.600m, r1=0.600m, r2=0.200m:

E=\frac{1}{2\pi(8.85*10^{-12}C^2/Nm^2)}[\frac{4.80*10^{-6}C}{0.600m}-\frac{2.26*10^{-6}C}{0.200m}}]=-59345.91N/C

According to the work-energy theorem, if work is done on an object, its potential and/or kinetic energy changes. Consider a car
Leni [432]

Answer:

The force of the car engine.

Explanation:

The work- energy theorem states that the work done on an object is equal to the change in its kinetic energy. Its expression is given by :

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)

Also, W = F.d

Fd=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)

Where

F is the force applied by the engine of car

d is the displacement

m is the mass of an object

u is the initial speed

v is the final speed

So, the force of the car engine increased the car’s kinetic energy. Hence, this is the required solution.
