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.

By law of refraction we know that image position and object positions are related to each other by following relation

\frac{\mu_1}{h_o} = \frac{\mu_2}{h_i}

here we know that

\mu_1 = 1.473

h_o = 5 cm

\mu_2 = 1

now by above formula

\frac{1.473}{5} = \frac{1}{h_i}

h_i = 3.39 cm

so apparent depth of the bottom is seen by the observer as h = 3.39 cm

a partially inflated weather balloon has a volume of 1.56 * 10^3 L and a pressure of 98.9 lPa. What is the volume of the balloon
e-lub [12.9K]
To solve the problem, we enumerate all the given first. Then the required and lastly the solution.

Given:

V1= 1.56x10^3 L = 1560 L                P2 = 44.1 kPa
P1 = 98.9 kPa

Required:  V2

Solution:

Assuming the gas is ideal. Ideal gas follows Boyle's Law which states that at a given temperature the product of pressure and volume of a gas is constant. In equation,

PV = k

Applying to the problem, we have
 
P1*V1 = P2*V2
(98.9 kPa)*(1560 L) = (44.1 kPa)*V2
V2 = 3498.5 L

<em>ANSWER: V2 = 3498.5 L</em>
